Nice old 6-ribbon Pelt. It seems like they called those Red Zebras at one time, but I'm old - who knows what they call them now, if anything. 🙂

Here are some of Marlow's contemporary Benningtons that David Chamberlain had pinned . . .

I think they are both JABO Classics.

You got that right, Charlie - an early one from Sistersville too, I think.

Nice marbles . . . post them up here too!

This one is only 1" but it's got a bit of bling in it . . .

It would be nice to see some more examples of Marlow's marbles, so please post them if you have them!

I'm not sure which contract run this is from but at just over 1 1/16", it's a big one . . .

Great group!

Happy MK Monday!

The one on the left looks like an Alley to me. The one on the right looks sort of like a "lazy" corkscrew. And marble sizing was not that precise, so that 37/64" marble would have sorted with the 5/8" marbles as one of the smallest of the No 0 size, which would run from a hair above 9/16" to 5/8".

Swirls are tough. Fortunately, there is a new book in the works (soon to be released, in my understanding) that is chock full of high quality photos and, in my opinion, is sure to become the go-to reference for swirl identification. Maybe one of its authors, @cheese, can tell us more.

I'm thinking CAC.

A very nice Alley IMO.

Alley is my bet.

I'm not really seeing Master or Akro, although I have seen oddball Vitros that look very similar - Conqueror era Vitro is my guess.

I'm thinking it's likely generic too. The Native American motif was very common on marble bags back in the day. Back when lots of families took road trips for summer vacations, you could find generic marble bags of one type or another at nearly every souvenir shop. And I recall those shops were very common. Manufacturers would often use the exact same graphics on different types of bags too, so it wouldn't surprise me to see this particular graphic on other bags as well.

I'm thinking Champion - they did quite a few with that smoky greenish/purplish base.

Happy Sunday!

An interesting bunch - something for everybody! What size is that largest sulfide?

It's a beauty, and very unusual. Good luck finding a mint one. The challenge will be that if an Akro collector ever sees one, they're going to buy it - you're going to need some extraordinary luck!

I agree with Peltier.

It was a marble that @Fire1981 posted on Thursday that yours reminded me of. I think yours is probably a JABO Classic - now I'm wondering about Fire's marble too.

I'm thinking this one is a JABO Classic too.

I think it's a JABO Classic. They occasionally get that corkscrew-like pattern - we call them Jorkscrews.
