Wow, Alan, what a show! It's indescribable. You have a keen eye for beautiful marbles, IMO, and a collection we are very lucky to see!

See what you started . . . lol.

I have a couple of Bogard bags that have begging me to open them for a good long while . . .

I just posted these in Sunday Best . . . At least I hope they're Ghosts . . . I probably should have backlit them too.

Sure thing. You might want to see @wvrons pic too.

And I agree on the purple one. A good dark purple or black one is always nice to find!

Those are nice - some of the best crystal glass in the business IMO. The thing about Peltier bananas and vanes is not so much their number as their "plumpness". If vanes start getting thin and they are separating lengthwise at the core, it might be wise to consider other possible manufacturers. Myself, I like my Peltier Bananas fat and with fewer vanes - the bigger the better. But of course, that's just me. 🙂

Nice, and it's interesting, but not too surprising, that the pattern of many game marbles is similar to that of the manufacturer's other marbles. I found a good Vitro Tomato awhile ago and got pretty excited about it! ☺️

Three of my Sunday's Best . . . 🙂

Great addition, Steph!

They sure did a nice blue.

Mine too.

Peltier's crystal glass is the best! And is that a Cerise? Super nice!

I Sometimes, ignorance really is bliss, Art. I know nothing about Akro packaging. I am entirely incapable of offering any serious opinion here so I offered a bit of levity. If I could smell that bag I might have something to go on.

All I can vouch for are the marbles. 😁

I'm such a schmuck . . . Welcome aboard!

It looks like a JABO to me.

Of course!

I'm leaning Akro - reminds me of a Popeye Patch.

Why are you sorry, Art?

Too bad they couldn't make it work. Hannah-Barbera must have thought it might if they granted the license to use their characters.

Not Pelt, maybe Vitro?

Another swirly one with AV . . .

Here's a swirl with horsehair and AV . . . It's a Heaton.

Nice display! The sun seems to always bring out the best in a marble.
