Chad'll be looking a good long time to find Waldo in this pic. lol And I'll give you a hint . . . huge arched windows full of marbles! If I saw that place as a kid, I probably wouldn't have been able to control myself. Can you imagine how awesome that must have been, especially if you were 3-4 ft tall? Wow!

You know, I do see what Ron saw on that first one - it does look like it could be an odd Vitro with weak colors. But I am going with foreign on all of the marbles here, other than the first Vitro and the MK.

They're are some decent marbles in the bunch, and some of the Tangerine Slags sure fit that bill. These gotta be the "Ole" Fashions, Ron - my bad! -

I'm pretty sure that Charlie Stutsman (RIP), who named and sold a lot of these NOFs in the 1990s would have referred to 6 of those as "Tangerine Slags" - you've got a nice variety of that type. -

They all look like Champion New Old Fashions to me. -
Nice - the blue ox are great!
-
Given the two-patch structure, rather than patch and ribbons, I would say that MK is the newer style. And that first marble is pretty cool - kinda messy, but cool, for sure.
-
I'm getting a Vitro vibe from the first one, but it'd be a bit of an oddball - maybe a cosmic rainbow??? The second looks foreign to me and the third does look MK.
-
It sort of looks like there might be two ribbons running together on one side of the first marble - like maybe one under the other. Weird stuff like that happens on Pelts some times.
-
I'd say there's a good chance it's from Sistersville.
-
It's a WV Swirl. I would say Heaton or Cairo but . . . ?

This is a dandy marble. I have a general rule . . . if you find a Tri-lite with good black on it - keep it! They aren't that easy to come by.

Newb question: whatever happened to the JABO machine?
Ric replied to truecatalyst's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
It's a good question. We'll may need @wvrons or @Nantucketdink for this one. Here's a few nice 1" Classics to ponder while we wait. -
So am I, Chuck, because I certainly don't have the information. Honestly, I am not even sure if this would be considered "real" oxblood, which is why I generally refer to it as "poxblood" (pelt oxblood, I think the first time I heard the term was from Al). Regardless, if it's not "real" oxblood, it sure can look close to it. What do you know about Pelt and oxblood? This one seems to have the dark red stuff too.

Vacor quality has improved in the past 10 years, as far as the orange peel texture goes, and it was/is always more prominent on the larger marbles.
-
The colors on the early Vitros are some of the most vivid around, and there are endless varieties. I really like them, in general.
-
I see the pics now too. Nice marble.
