Got it, thanks, as usual, Chad!

Just a few peewees . . .

I'm always looking for a better "R". 😁

What about Ravenswood?

Hmmm . . . wild, maybe a dug MK? Maybe an even crazier Heaton?

Wouldn't that be a Superboy - basically, a Superman sans yellow?

Very chic, Melissa!

Thanks for the link - an interesting read, indeed.

FWIW, I'm not so sure the photos in those pics, even those from Alan, aren't a little over exposed and making the oxblood look lighter than it would it hand.

Thanks Art, I love that Vitro lavender color - it's very distinct, so I just thought I'd show it on a few different types.

I've seen plenty of oxblood and I know for sure that the OP marble is not oxblood. Do you have a good example on a marble? If not, PM your address and I'll send you some.

I think that Glass Firma may produce marbles in several locations other than Mexico. It seems like I recall some facilities in SE Asia somewhere. As for the marbles I posted as "Chinese", I have to admit that I don't really know that for sure, all I really know is that I spotted them on Alibaba, and it wouldn't surprise me a bit if Alibaba sells wares from countries other than just China.

I'd call that last one a Skunk.

I think lighting might have a lot to do with the way that oxblood looks, either that, or it's just a poor example of oxblood.

Ooh, look at the blue coming out on it - it might be even better than a typical Zebra. I think Blue Zebras are a thing but we'll have to let the Pelt Heads weigh in on this one.

Oxblood a very distinct and fairly consistent. That's not to say there isn't some variation, but this is not oxblood. If you've seen someone call something even close to salmon-colored oxblood they were just making stuff up, which happens quite a bit actually, especially on EBay. You just need to get a good example of it in hand and you'll never forget it.

I agree with Art and Bill - many look like Ravenswoods to me. I'd be thinking Alley for that upper right one though - it's the best marble in the bunch, for sure, I'd be happy to see a few more pics of it too!

Yeah, that's a nice find!

FWIW, It looks more Pelt than Akro to me.

I think it has too many colors for a DuLite - maybe a TriLite. But it sorta looks more like a slightly odd Type I Tiger Eye that missed out on it's top polar patch. I think the orange and purple maybe should have been the half-and-half equatorial ribbons, and the white, the bottom polar patch. Or maybe it's just my imagination that's getting a little wild.

Gotta do an Art and quote myself because I messed up my OP - It's a really sweet Vitro Blackie - not an All Red of any sort because . . . of course, it would have to have red on it! Sorry, but you gotta give me a senior moment every once in a while!

I think Art might have called the OP marble correctly (Anacortes Vitro) but I think JABO may also be a possibility.

Sure looks Alley to me - nice marble too.

It's a Flicker, IMO. And by the way, that's a great name you came up with!

This reminds me a lot of some of those Vacor/El Aquila marbles we've been seeing lately. It's not giving me an American vibe, not even a little.
