  1. I remember Ron saying he thought that maybe 12-13 were made.
  2. I'd say a Vienna Vitro, an early TriLite.
  3. it's always interesting to see the innards of a cane-cut marble.

    I think it's an early "bullet mold" - a fancy one. 🙂

    5/8ths WVS

    I completely agree with Bill.
  6. Nice Champion! Some people classify this type as a "Furnace Marble" and others do not. I fall into the later category. They are great marbles either way.
  7. I think Alley made some nice Flickers.
  8. I think Heaton is a good possibility too.
  9. I believe that is correct - a Peltier Dragonfly. I posted this one last "Peltier Tuesday".
  10. I think that is very cool but I can't quite figure it out. Does it have a particular use - candy dish, maybe? It looks like it's made with a "bird" motif to me. I like it!
  11. The Paul Bunyans are interesting marbles. The last I heard from Ron, shortly before he passed, he had pretty much settled on the idea that they actually were made and packaged by Ravenswood as a sort of special production item. Let me know if you find any big game marbles or clearies in your bags.
  12. I posted these a couple of weeks ago. Early JABO Classic Experimentals, circa 1991-1992.
  13. I think it's probably Ravenswood.
  14. I think it's Alley - I like it.
  15. Yes, I am thinking American Agate too.
  16. I really am not sure but I am leaning Akro over Vitro - sort of like a multicolor Popeye Patch, IMO - the colors seem off a bit for Vitro to me too. It's a very nice marble though, regardless.
  17. There are a couple of nice chunks of marbles in this bowl
  18. We've been feeding them since we were married 45 years ago too, Art. Still using the feeder my Uncle Buck made us for a wedding present. It's been painted and re-shingled a few times but it's been through about 6 states and it's still going strong.
  19. @Fire1981 I'm liking the Champion - nice Flicker!
  20. I'm seeing an animated pelican but to each their own, I guess. lol It's a nice example of a Flicker too, Art!
  21. Rick says a Flicker has 1-4 flame tips in the OP and I assume more as long as the tips are not stacked 5 high, because then it would be a full-fledged Flame - an Inferno if you're lucky. 😄
  22. Seriously? Whats not to like about a good Flicker? This Ravenswood may be my favorite.
