  1. I can send you a jpg scan if that would help? i didn't keep the originals I don't think... stay tuned?
  2. uh... steph, did you have an IAMC newsletter with all of the pictures??? I will look in files, I am sure I ahve them all...somewhere....
  3. sorry couldn't resist!http://www.ebay.com/itm/AKRO-AGATE-EXPIERMENTAL-EGGYOLK-BLACK-BLUE-SHERBERT-ORANGE-RARE-MARBLE-/400661740727#ht_271wt_1378
  4. winnie... i love those sparkler types with oxblood and aventurine. killer!!
  5. looks akro, i would put it in the blueberry ade category. I think it may be more of a moss swirl than a cork tho. :-) neat marble!!
  6. lol, it used to be quite expensive for us.. because i didn't want to part with some. I try to exercise restaint. but it can be very hard!!
  7. because I don't sell my own marbles. haven't for a few years. all consignment. :-)
  8. Thought I would give a preview of what's coming on the bay... this sucker is huge for a lemonade. 25/32".~ mint. :-) don't see really big ones very dang often. had to share. fell in love with it. LOL!
  9. they are also very opalescent. hope you can tell by this picture...and mon's too. they're gorgeous in the sun! paul's is just off the hook.
  10. maybe................ not sure who's arm you'll have to twist tho.. LOL!
  11. just to add a little more confusion, the other marbles found with these were the burnt sparklers. ;-) check page 79 of 'mfc, and the perfect glass ball machine'. I am betting that most of what akro bought were the bricks. just a hunch, since i was not there either. also in that book is reference as to the colors MFC used. They also did experiementation, (but according to the book, these were usually done by factory workers and taken home).. but I doubt akro would have dumped them. they would of either sold them or used the glass? and to get back to the topic, we also have this style popeye, and auger types etc. sorry for threat jacking... (shame on us Galen.)
  12. I think yours may have more colors paul...
  13. oh... we're not done yet are we?
  14. HMMM... so then you would be saying MFC did indeed make red? None of these match up to MFC color palettes. if it makes you smile Galen, we can call then nonproduction, or accidental? as none like these have been found in any advertising or salesman samples. I understand that when MFC went out of business, akro bought the remaining inventory, for resale. is this what you mean or do you know of another large load of marbles brought from MFC? prior to that they use to buy marbles and fill boxes prior to moving to Clarksburg. onyx types. As more info is discovered, we have certainly seen a lot of beliefs change over the years. but we have no reason to doubt our source on these.
  15. These are all experimental dug akros. only a few have slag like qualities. most are opaque or close to. found over 10 feet down, original factory site.
