  1. Nice. Brick closest to big amber slag looks cool. Cool collection, there's gotta be a story because sometimes in California, 40 miles is no easy trek. (Last time I was there probably spent a good hour on the 405 to get 20 miles. It was a while back, and some might consider that a good day on the 405. lol.)
  2. Do you mean CAC or MFC? Definitely looks handgathered. Akro made a lot of slags... green being one of the popular colors for most companies that made slags at the time
  3. Pattern looks CAC. If that's crazing in the glass probably didn't make it through quality control, and might have been in the ground? both that and iridescence can be caused by being buried. Nice looking marble though, do you remember where you got it?
  4. Master came to mind first but I'd like to hear what others think
  5. Interesting, never had one before and always assumed they were a polished mineral sphere, similar to a tiger eye, Agate, etc. Wouldn't have suspected glass. Learned something new.
  6. The "bullseye" could be a fracture from taking a hit. Light refracts differently through those and could be why it looks more red in that area.
  7. Yes, it was somewhere after Vitro before full circle back to Kokomo or Pelt.
  8. I'm really not seeing anything that would lean me towards Pelt, but someone will probably know.
  9. The first marble I'd put with my Pelts. Sweet pattern, especially 1st pic. The others I'd put with my "wants to be a Pelt, probably isn't, but really wanna be" pile. Oddly enough Imperial came to mind, and then MK...then Vitro, then full circle.
  10. tough to say without seeing in hand, but the size and pattern lean me towards handmade. See if you can find evidence of a pontil, in the area where the red ends.
  11. Maybe CAC on the first? Run, rabbit run.
  12. So what's going on at the poles, is it black (fading to purple/blue) or is it transparent blue? The top right pic is just bonkers. Nice marble.
  13. I'll second that, some of the black glass info was new to me. Thanks Ron!
  14. Wow, that flash really made a difference as it's looking pretty purple now on my screen. I now see why you'd take a closer look
  15. It's a mashup for sure. Almost like MK, CAC, Pelt, and Vitro had a baby.
  16. When you put a light behind it, does the construction twist from pole to pole (ie: where the red stripes stop and, where they begin at the opposite pole)? Almost looks like it could be a handmade but hard to tell from the pics.
  17. 1 is Akro 2 is Pelt 3 Pelt, slim chance of something else (from the pics, looks a bit odd) 4 is Pelt
  18. No one else thinking Kokomo as a possibility?
  19. Beat me to it, my opinion is the same. Although the color/pattern is usually more associated with the other transitionals I think this predates those, and German in origin.
