  1. Thanks for the thoughts, Ann. I am pretty confident that if the middle one isn't a Peltier, it's a Vacor (In fact, I am leaning that way). We know they can look pretty close structure-wise, and the colors and glass just don't strike me as Peltier. And I agree about the MK swirls, the ones I have had and seen are tricolors too. But it seems probable that they made (and perhaps discarded) versions with fewer colors too, don't you think?
  2. You might find this post interesting.
  3. You lay the heart in a fire or on a woodstove, etc. to heat it up. Then you pick it out of the fire with the stand and set it (heart hanging) on the table. You us a dropper to put medicine in it (e.g., eucalyptus) and you inhale the vapors. Yup . . . I completely made that up.
  4. I want to say it is part of a flow control system, but I'll bet someone else (like Alan) will know for sure.
  5. I'm feeling Alley, and not much else.
  6. It's good to see we've learned some things in the past 7-8 years.
  7. Nice Craig - big ones are great. not a big one . . .
  8. Okay, so the middle one does look a lot like a Rainbo but I must say I am not entirely convinced - something seems different about it. Regardless, I am more interested in the left and right marbles. They are obviously made by the same maker. The glass, colors, pattern and quality look more Kokomo than Peltier IMO. I know others have (seen) these marbles. Does anyone else have thoughts about them? In with some others. Please let me know if you think any of these are not Kokomo. That1 has indicated that he thinks they might be MK and would have the upper right one as a Peltier. I know it looks Woody-ish. Has anyone seen similar dug or in Pelt packaging?
  9. Nice case. What's not to like about slags?
  10. Nice ones Mibs. This one is 13/16" a few more . . .
  11. That1, I have 5/8" matches for that nice Conqueror upper left. These are 63/64"-1"
  12. There are certainly people who have more experience with them and are better at recognizing the variety of makers than others. Ron is one of the best, but he doesn't consider himself an expert and will readily admit that there are certain types that cannot be identified with certainty.
  13. Depending on how many years ago it was, not much may have been known about Heaton marbles.
  14. Little ones, huh Bill? How big are those bad boys?
  15. I've seen similar colors on early Alleys - not peewee size though. Here is one of my favorite peewees.
  16. That's what this thread needed - thanks Bill! The big one is killer - great orange peel. Is that in the case with your Buckskin et al? I like a nice cold-roll on big Akros too. It gives them character. Now I think Chuck is on to something with this one . . . The fold was throwing me. It's just a more interesting than usual Rainbo - four ribbons, two with a red/pink tracer. Good eye Chuck and That1! Now, how about those other two?
  17. I am thinking these are Kokomos (not #9 - maybe Akro?). Have you seen dug or packaged Pelts like the one top right in post #12? (I know it looks woody-ish)
