Yes, it's an oddball that appears to have gotten twisted in the production process. Sometimes, oddballs make for the best marbles. They are often far more interesting than their standard counterparts. 🙂

It's got a nice fold in it and the seams are pinched together to make that nice "V" pattern in pic 1 (the "pinched-together" seams are easy to see in photo 2 - they would normally be on opposite sides of the marble).
-
That is pretty typical for a Peltier Rainbo pattern and colors.

@Jeff54 Thanks, Jeff - I was thinking you'd probably have more detail about these. Do you recall how Jill's dug one might have differed from the modern ones. I seem to recall that a Blue Boy back in the day was more like what they call a Golden Boy today - but my knowledge and recall of MKs is obviously not as good as yours so, yeah, there is that. lol
-
I do think it's called a Blue Boy, and I think they were made sometime in the early 2000s but not entirely sure. They also did red/orange and white ones (maybe more) I have no idea if they are named or not.

Here's some I posted in West Virginia Wednesday

I'm having a hard time seeing a pontil. It might just be the fact that this one appears tough to photograph - not too uncommon with monochrome marbles. Does it look like any of the pontils shown in this thread?
-
I agree, it's one of the newer marbles, jabo contract. DAS or Sammy.

The colors are not any Vitro that I recognize, Tommy. I think it's a JABO from one of the contract runs - or a DAS, or a SMM, I suppose.
-
These single color swirls on white can be really tough to ID with any real certainty. Although, I don't think it's a JABO. Champion and Alley would be my guesses - in that order.
-
That's what I'm thinking too - can't really imagine what else it would be, but maybe my imagination just isn't good enough. 🙂
-
@Jeff54 I just realized how much your "Halloween" resembles some Clowns. Do you think they are related - beyond both being Peltiers? 🙂
-
I agree with MFC too.
-
Ha . . . I just noticed that two of the marbles switched places but maintained the same side showing - woops!
-
Thanks, Art - that marble is from Ron, and it is a dandy.

I think these actually are from the Mylee run. The problem was that I didn't recognize the "Mylee" name. All I remembered was that it was a pre-Joker tank wash. They range in size from 1/2" - 5/8" with most around 9/16" - some have a bit of lutz bling in them too. Turns out, Jake and I were at that run! This photo was taken that weekend outside the Belleville Inn, which is what we used to call Ron's place. I hope they're still hanging together, with brother Billy too - may they all rest in peace. 🙂
