  1. I'm getting a Foreign vibe on the first. If not, Master.
  2. I agree with Mushroom on the first. Most of the ones I've found are from Canadian or European sources.
  3. Came across this old pic that reminded me...I was hoping Pelt for you but those Jabos are pretty convincing
  4. I think those are called cryonids (or something like that). Seen plenty of them in rocks but not a marble. Cool
  5. I'd be comfortable with Alley on both
  6. From what I can make out looks like a bunch of earlier handmades with faceted pontil. What makes you think polished? A lot of the marbles from Solitaire boards stayed in pretty good shape because they lived on a board (or in the box) rather than on a playground in a kids marble bag
  7. Nice score. Been awhile for me anyways
  8. Not a corkscrew and I agree transitional hand gathered. I'll echo the cut off/pontil looks very clean compared to most Japanese. The glass quality, pattern, and even the color are nicer than what you'd normally associate with Japanese. Nice example.
  9. The agate could have been part of a watch fob, letter opener etc. Probably not intended to be a marble with the hole drilled, but whatever. Still round.
  10. They would probably wear quick with the rest of those old clays. Like carrying them around in a bag of gravel, lol.
  11. The metallic look is likely foil that has rubbed off over time
  12. Not entirely sure what we're looking at here, but the marbles in the first pic look pretty clean. Also assuming they were painted after firing. I suppose anyone at any time could make/paint clay marbles in small quantities. And that red white and blue would be pretty popular color choices.
  13. I can see why somebody might think Pelt. The pattern is messed up but the cutlines look like it in the pics. Odd colors for Pelt though
  14. About a dozen or so have potential if the condition is there (the other white based ones with a single color are fairly common). A couple imposters might have also sneaked into the group.
  15. Nice. The blowout on the last Alley (metallic) shows some interesting depth.
  16. Nice haul. I like the Veililiglass and handmade confetti. Of course there are quite a few other stand-outs as well.
  17. If I'm understanding things correctly you went out of your way to correct the sellers mistake (for which you got refunded), but the guy who ended up with your marbles won't give it up? Even though he got it by mistake to begin with? So much seems odd. Looks like a pretty common amber slag to begin with.
  18. Cool, don't recall seeing the clock before let alone two. Any instructions with the game? Box say UK on it somewhere?
  19. I hoped that whoever owned that collection would chime in. Still, you don't see them that often. I almost took a chance.. an online auction pic where it looked like one was hiding (local auction out of Canada no less). Kinda kicking myself now.
  20. If the pontil is faceted (looks to be), made in Germany. Early. Greiner
  21. Looks like it could be a Pelt with messed up pattern
  22. I don't collect these so not sure what people are calling them, but this looks like it was made by Marble King to me
