Hard to tell from those photos (maybe even in hand) but I'm not seeing German or Navarre. It does look like an early handgathered slag tho. Possibly MFC. UNLESS there is a melted pontil 5 o'clock position of third pic down. Then I'm going with Navarre being a strong contender

Yes, harder to find in the grand scheme of things (compared to more common blue or brown benningtons... and the others pictured in your group).

There are some Foreign marbles with similar pattern, typically on transparent tinted base as well.

Not an Onionskin

Nice. Reminds me I once encountered a marble themed kleenex box at my old office. Couldn't believe it when talking to a coworker and they literally had a kleenex box with Akro Corkscrews printed on it. Random marbles are a good way to brighten the day.

nice handmade German. Timeframe seems about right, these were made from about 1850s to 1910 or so. I'd put this at the earlier end of that scale. Nice symmetry amd pattern. Condition looks pretty good for being in the ground all these years

Nice shooter. I think I see a hint of blue on my screen

Welcome! For begginners and depending how many marbles to sort, a good place to start is separate glass marbles from stone/steel etc. Generic glass marbles (single color transparent or opaque) are easy to separate, followed by generic catseyes. What's left over is where it gets interesting...time consuming but rewarding. Worth noting: not everyone agrees on names. Some names even vary geographically, some ID's change as more info comes to light, and some info published in books is arguably incorrect, so I take most with a grain of salt and try not to split hairs. With a single group shot most informed collectors will have a decent idea of what you've got and what's worth a closer look.

Most likely Alley

Almost looks like evidence of being reheated or torched in the yellow. Although it would be odd to do so on a Vacor...

Cool, video worked for me. I can see the sparkle. More often than not, it's incidental in marbles and some people collect examples based on eye appeal alone (similar to examples with incidental debris, oven brick, large bubbles, "UV POP"list goes on and on.)

did I miss the size for the OP? Or am I just not seeing it now? I'm wondering how it would compare in hand to these colorsl

Finding any marble unexpected is a good thing (to me anyway). Marble looks like a well used Peltier Rainbo. Production sizes ranged frim under 1/2" to about an inch, so this is at the larger end of the scale, but fairly common. Probably around 70 years old and made in the good ol' USA.

Is white a lifesaver flavor? Pineapple? I always associated lifesaver with red green and yellow.

Some would call it a Mist. It's nice. Not very common (I'm trying to remember if I've got one). If a true peewee even better.

Is it not a shooter Cosmic Rainbow?

Pelt Rainbo. Attractive colors and pattern for a Rainbo.

It was a pamphlet from the shipping box. I doubt it had anything to do with the manufacturer of the marbles, probably just advertising for a local upcoming show (at the time).

Other than red, I imagine Vaseline glass would appeal to certain collectors. Deep purple/black or shrunken cores cased in clear also.

My contribution for comparison sake. Of note: plastic round board instead of wooden. As far as where the marbles were made? Hard to say. Much like swirls and catseyes were made in the USA by multiple companies, it's entirely possible there was more than one Euro manufacturer cranking out (somewhat generic) wirepulls as well.

What's the size by the way? Looks like it's bigger, probably over an inch but less than 1-1/4" is my guess.

That blue slag has a tight '9', nice example. I'm thinking MFC

Multi colored Latt. Approx 11/16" faceted pontil.

Anyhow, I dug mine out for a photo op if it helps the discussion. Examples of interest: -a tinted blue base with yellow ribbons -what appears to be a green+blue+white combo Hard to get to the glass detail thru the rough texture of the mesh, any pointers? (Other than opening)

Is it not a folded up Pelt Rainbo.
