And now I agree, that view changes things for sure. I have some old Alleys that are really close color-wise. I'll post a pic when I get a chance.
Paul, That second one is a killer!
I have a big one, and have seen quite a few more, that came out of the ground at Ottawa and look very similar to yours. In fact, I'd say they're probably the same. I'll try to get a pic later.
There are a bunch of killer Vitros in this thread - I do wonder about yours though, Winnie. I've never seen that color combo on a Vitro and the pattern looks a bit different too. Hmmm . . .
Looks like a great first show. Congratulations, I am sure it took considerable effort to pull it off. I'll do my best to be at the next one. June 7 is a much better date for me. And that is a nice box. About the only thing that would make it better is if it had Alleys in it. lol.
Galen, to me, that looks like an odd transparent Whitey that's missing a ribbon. I have seen (likely still possess, somewhere) several similar with a few different striping colors. Next time I come across them I'll try to remember to take pics and post them.
They look like they could be Peltier to me. They did a pretty distinctive bright peach/reddish-orange color - sort of hard to describe - and I think I may see it.
FWIW, One thing I've noticed about Pelt Crystals is that many are highly reflective - more so than other makers, I think - especially red, yellow, orange and green ones. You could make a great sign out of them.
I pretty much agree with Steph. When the Euros and Americans become more similar looking, I think you can most often distinguish them based on ribbon structure and colors, or known examples. I like the last one you posted. I seems like some other views might look even more Alley to me.
