The vase-full of swirls is sweet and the flamey one is too. And my favorite thing about the Vitro Victories is their crystal clear base glass.

Nice one Eggie. I like chinas but do not have even one as nice as yours . . . I need to fix that.

That is a dandy box Winnie - a very nice set of marbles! The bright blue and green colors are sweet. Congratulations on your find!

That will be great Steve - thanks!

Welcome Eggie, Nice marbles. I enjoy swirls myself. Is your camera making some of them look egg-shaped or are some of them out of round? Because some do look that way to me. And I agree with Stephanie, I think a number of your marbles could get lost in a collection of American swirls. Many others are distinctly European. Thanks for showing them. Here are some of my favorites . . . mainly because I got them in a trade with Winnie.

I have seen similar sorts of color solids in striping glass but never so nicely displayed!

Nice marbles! I like the flamey ones, of course. Please let me know if you decide to sell them. The handmades are very nice too. As for the green ones, I would say a less common color and same shop, perhaps.

Well there you go . . . nice job Galen!

Pics of the site, any remaining equipment, artifacts, found marbles, etc. would be awesome!

Nice, Ravenswood mables are some of my favorites. I have seen the old building a few times driving past. Do you ever find any marbles on the property?

That's the one, Al. Thanks!

More Pressman Bull's Eyes. The first are Alleys from Pensboro, I believe. I think the marbles in the smaller bag are also Alley but they may be later - there appears to be a Peltier marble in the bag.

Hmmm . . . too nice for kids to beat up? They seem pretty plain for decorative or artistic purposes. What are you thinking - some adult game, valves, bearings, ammo . . . ?

Yes, Winnie, they are Alleys.

New York Mets!

I am not sure I can explain other than to say I have handled thousands of cat's eyes and the only one (other than that dark one) which I thought might be in green glass is bottom row center.

Okay, I think two - if the dark one is a cat's eye. I think the others which look like they might be are reflecting the vane color.

Meaning dug . . .

Big Vitros:

33-34? Or if you mean 'color-based', maybe 1?

Yup, it's a Muddy.
