The middle Vitro looks to have a neat pattern

My first guess as well. Maybe a conquerer of some type?

Appears to be another one straight above it. The brown/green to it's right is a color combo I've seen attributed to Ravenswood but could be Alley, hard to tell from the pics.

I'm not up on my minerals but it does look like a polished stone to me. "Lupin" or something like that is what comes to mind

The blue one looks like a German handmade Mica (probably around 100 years old), the other ones look like machinemade marbles, probably also European and maybe a bit newer than the blue one.

real nice displays guys, jten those slags are sweet. I really like to see other peoples collections and how they're displayed, humbling actually

Nice one, would have been my first guess since I have the same combo and think it falls in that category. "Canadian Mushroom". I really think there is something to the location these are found in tho'

wow! It's gotta be an Akro though, right?

Bottom left could be an Alley Coral, top right could be Pelt, other two I don't recognize

They all look Vitro from the pictures

yes, looks that way to me

I like these wacky ones. and am glad they didn't get discarded. It is a little surprising they'd still spend the time to grind/facet the pontil...although at that point 90% of the labor and materials would already be into it.

Yeah, these ones are tough to ID and years ago there was discussion on origin. I believe the common opinion was "Foreign" meaning non-USA (they seem to be found more often in groups of marbles in Canada, UK, Australia and parts of Europe). Red and white are probably the most common color combo, and sizes over 1" are a lot less common than the ~5/8" sizes.

The one you pictured is different in the sense it's deliberately a colored base glass where others could be argued as a 'tint' caused by UV (purple) or contamination in the clear glass (ie: yellow or bluish tint). And the colored outer bands too are odd too. Most of the deliberate colored ones I've come across are a white latt and white outer caged bands typically on a deep blue, emerald green, or amber yellow base glass

Peltier, but not Christmas trees

Yeah, screen grab from a live set. Categorically non-marble, but eye candy, so I figured it fit the bill

Original post looks like a Vacor maybe?

Looks like a nice swirl in the background

That is sad. I always liked to read his posts, which hopefully included a pic of nice marbles, old cars, outdoors, dogs (and sometimes all of the above). Keep on smiling Lloyd

My initial thought is Foreign, but different pics could sway me. Don't know what's causing the 'halo' reflection but it's throwing me off.

Several manufacturers made handgathered marbles, the cut-off in pic two may hold some clues?

Looking at the pics again, got to wonder if NRL would be more appropriate than NLR? Or was there any Pelt packaging that actually refers to them as "National Line Rainbo" (in that order)?

cool

Cool. Interesting font on the illustration. Is it printed on the cardboard itself?

That large National Rainbo Line box is pretty cool. Quite impressive collection
