  1. There is something about that particular shade of blue that makes me think it's Jabo. But I could be wrong ☺️
  2. Great pic's Chad, and I see you have included the rare very very hard to find white MFC slag. If I read my copy of M.F. Christenson and the Perfect Glass Ball Machine by Micheal Cohill, the white slag marble was only run once. If I still had my copy I could tell you the date, but I sold it😒. I have some pictures I saved for reference. The first two pictures are from my collection, the rest are from the before mentioned book. Fire I hope you don't mind, I think we've moved beyond blue slags.☺️ last two pics are various oxbloods and some original packaging.
  3. I'm thinking Mfc here, horizontal flow, prominent cut line opposite the nine ☺️
  4. These are Ace Corkscrews not fluorescent no oxblood largest is 31/32" ☺️
  5. I had to do some serious digging for these pics, not all are corks but some good oxblood examples ☺️
  6. Well, you've eliminated what you think it's not. Who makes big marbles? Have you tried a blacklight? Great marble ☺️
  7. Looks Akro to me, I've had some Akro's with aventurine in the green.☺️
  8. Hello Wolf, seems you don't mind talking about what you pay for marbles on Ebay, so I have some questions about this marble. You say you got it for $38 was that a buy it now or did someone else bid $37 and you bid a dollar more and got it for $38? and did that include shipping? Also, what was the incorrect description? As far as the oxblood thing goes there should be some amount of black on/in the oxblood color. I enjoy your posts ☺️
  9. Great box, the graphics are wonderful! Thanks for posting ☺️
  10. I'm guessing Vitro, is the size 9/16"? ☺️
  11. You know everyone here is trying so hard to help you identify your marbles, but it can be very hard do on a computer screen. Sometimes just feeling a marble in your hand can make a difference in identifying a marble and as a new collector it is frustrating to learn these subtle details. I remember my first marble show. I was so excited talking to the dealers they were so helpful and there were so many things to see, you should go. But don't forget your friends here☺️
  12. You know if you'd like to learn and talk about marbles you should try going to a marble show. You will learn alot about marbles and collecting at a marble show ☺️
