  1. Looks like a patch to me, or maybe a really weird Peltier - not JABO, IMO.
  2. I have some huge Asian Cat's Eyes that look really similar, and I have seen similar looking and sized Cat's Eyes (Taiwan) packaged by Shackman in "Six Jumbo Kate Greenaway Marbles" boxes. They also packaged some (Japan) in "Super Deluxe Jumbo Multicolor Marbles" boxes but I think they were mostly single-color ones.
  3. Just a little cross-through . . . a great color combination though, IMO.
  4. Maybe an Orange Dragon but kinda weak color-wise.
  5. No kidding - that big one in the back (I think it was 3/4") was a killer in hand.
  6. With that bling, I'd say almost certainly. Although it might be one of Dave or Sammy's newer post-JABO marbles.
  7. Here's a few Bill posted . . . just for reference.
  8. Gotta be a little careful because there's a newer MK that's a pretty fair imposter too.
  9. Cool marble - kind of odd. It appears to have way more than it's fair share of white, and it's hard to tell, but it does kind of look like a crude folded "pontil". How would you classify it?
  10. I've got it's brother, kinda crazy how 5 vanes can "horseshoe" and fill them right up.
  11. Definitely an interesting marble - the latticino is pretty unusual. Thanks for showing it!
  12. Nice 6-ribbon Rainbo - not a Dragon Fly, IMO.
  13. Some weirdos - bubbles all over the vanes really make them sparkle . . . ๐Ÿ™‚
  14. I really like the fatties too. It seems like fat vanes are more common in the older 5-vane Vitros than the 6-vane ones. I don't seen many hybrid fatties either. The one you posted is a really nice example. Ha, and thanks for the Cat Soup and link to Ohara. I have a soft spot for artists and I really enjoyed looking around her site. She seems like a super interesting person and she is obviously very talented. ๐Ÿ™‚

    7/8 Jabo

    A little too pretty for a JABO Classic, IMO - I hope I'd remember that one. I'm thinking it might be one of Dave or Sammy's newer marbles.

    I think it's a Peltier that's so messy it barely looks like one.
  17. Oogly is the word for those Master Cat's Eyes, Art - I like them too. And speaking of furry Cats . . .
  18. I'd call it a crockery marble. I have a number of them but I am not sure about their origin. I usually lean toward Germany, mostly because of that greenish brown color, but I sure wish I had more certainty because sometimes I lean towards one of the earlier American manufacturers like Standard Toy Marble or American Marble and Toy Co. I do know that it's not what we typically call a Bennington and it is likely at least 100 years old.
