That'd be a pretty crazy Pelt, at nearly an inch . . .
-
This is exactly what I am thinking, Steph, and why I am hesitant to stretch too far to ID some as American-made.
-
These look more like JABO Classics to me.
-
I would guess Alley on the first and the third, even though the structure looks a little JABO. The second is a wacky patch that looks Akro to me.
-
The first is likely Master (brushed patch) - maybe Akro. The second looks more Akro to me.
-
A foreign, probably Asian, cat's eye.
-
Hard to say from these pics, maybe a swirl with a twist.
-
Good straight on shots of the seams helps with marbles like this but I am thinking Akro on this one.
-
Looks like it might be a pinched (folded) Vitro.
-
The second is a slag, the first looks a bit more like a swirl.
-
In my experience, a good yellow puree is hard to find, not sure why though, maybe it's just me. And I think some 3/8" mibs were used in roll-on applicators back in the day.
-
Looks like some of the spiral is hiding in a fold.
-
3-6 look Vitro, 7 Akro and 8 Master or maybe Akro.
-
I am thinking Vitro.

Welcome Joep! That is interesting and attractive jewelry. As you may have gathered, my name is Ric. I am half Dutch (the good half as my 93 year old Mother would say) and I used to trade marbles with a beautiful soul named Winnie, who lived in Amsterdam. Unfortunately, she is no longer with us (RIP). She was wonderful community member - I miss her being here. -
It's a pretty marble. But I worry that many of these marbles that kind of resemble Vitro or Akro are not USA-made, and that I need way more education about these sorts of patch and ribbon styles. Do we even know where outside the USA they made this style of marble?
-
The first one looks mostly Vitro to me and the second I am not sure about. Is the base glass translucent?
-
In the bag, many look like they are made in Asia. A few of the ones you pulled out look like they could be Akro or Vitro, but I have some doubts.
-
I have no idea what this is but, again, it doesn't look American-made to me. I could see it being an older Vacor, but I really have no idea.
-
Not an Alley, maybe one of those Asian figure eight types? It doesn't look USA-made to me - if it did, I would say it looks most like a Peltier Rainbo.
-
Again, it's a little dark, but I do not think it's a Vitro.
-
It's a bit too dark for me to see much. If possible, try to take photos so the shadow behind the marble - more like the last shot.
-
They appear to be non-USA made Cat's Eyes. The first one in kinda cool.
-
There are too many marbles in a single post. It takes most of the fun out of IDing. The first one is a Vitro Aquamarine or variant.

Nice Bruce, I really like the boat!
