Yeah, that's a great marble - they don't come much cleaner! Nice group, Dave - lots of pink. It reminds me of a big collection I purchased from a woman around here who had collected for a long time - lots of pink and pastel colors on both hand-mades and machine-mades.
-
Based on the one view, they look like Alleys from St. Mary's to me.
-
Pretty funny story, but since the interior looks threaded, I doubt it was a valve - some kid probably just stuck it in the fitting who knows when. It's definitely a cool Rainbo though, I think I'd be kinda glad for the mishap!
-
I think it's likely just a European machine made with some nice interior action, since I don't see any evidence of hand-gathering.

is this a pelt or a mk? Now I am mixing them up...
Ric replied to Jeremysvt's topic in Marble I.D.'s
Without a polar patch and only the two equatorial ribbons, it has the structure of a new MK, which would mean it is not a Spiderman. -
I gotta agree. That's some pretty fancy footwear for a hotplate!

Very cool, I have seen latticinios used in similar applications but it's far less common than using "clearies", at least in my experience.

Happy Ground Hog Day--show your best from the ground
Ric replied to akroorka's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
I have about 2 pints of marbles that are still covered in dirt and I am very proud of the discipline I have shown to leave them as they are. Please, don't tempt me! lol -
The left is JABO and I think the right one is too. Sometimes marbles can get "furrows" in them because of the way the glass cools or the way the glob moves on the rollers.

Those mibs originally cost about 1 1/2 hours pay. You'd need a darn good job to get them anywhere near that rate today!
-
That is a cool little piece.

Just clod of Pennsboro Alleys . . . in Pennsboro dirt.

This one looks like JABO.
-
It's the same pics.
-
Ron has one that has fooled many an Akro collector, and it's a killer!
-
That's the other possibility. If I could see the colors a little better I might agree.
-
Sorta looks like this one gave it a whirl.
-
Alley or Champion would be my guess, leaning slightly Alley.
-
One of not too many named Classics. I think Dave himself named this one.
-
1980s I think.
-
My first thought is a JABO Sweet Potato Pie or variant, but I am not entirely sure.
-
It looks a bit more like a swirl than a slag to me but beyond that I think this one will be very tough to ID with any degree of certainty.
-
Reflections make it pretty hard to see but I am thinking Champion.
