Wow, that's a nice collection, Joep!

Those are great finds!

Vitro is really all I see - really cool Superior variants is my best guess. I'd put them in my collection, for sure. Hint, Hint.

I have seen some similar-looking Alleys but I too am thinking Pelt slag on this one.

Those are interesting mibs - great base color. I'm leaning Vitro but they're pretty unusual so . . .

Kokomo originally purchased their machines from Peltier so I think all of their early marbles were made on a "Peltier machine", and you know some of Kokomo patterns are about as similar to Peltier patterns as you can get.

Or . . . Kokomo marbles are not exactly known for being pretty. In fact, I think the marble on the left here is probably one of the prettiest types they ever made, at least to me. -
Hot Button Topic -- Do you believe in Kokomo ID's?
Ric replied to Steph's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
I don't pay a lot of attention to most Kokomo IDs unless I already recognize the marble as Kokomo based on personal experience and comparison to known examples. Some Kokomo's and Peltiers are so near identical that I wouldn't even try to sort them. So unless those types are from the ground or original packaging, I default to Peltier just because of statistics. Having said that, there are many Kokomo marbles that can be positively identified. For example . . .
