ooo! ooo! ooo!

Nice looking marbles there

Would they have been made by hand or machine? might help narrow down age

Think I have a purple/amber one around somewhere but it's pretty chipped up.

Cool, that makes three that I've seen. apparently used for 'pea pool' or 'kelly pool'

Cool, bet they went quick!

Solid wager for Vitro, based on the last pics.

Unusual for sure, vague recollection of seeing similar ones discussed as Vitro but they were shooters. What's the size? Maybe a shot of all 4 would help.

Nice way to mix work and play, congrats!

What do the four top marbles (below the bag) look like in hand?

cool, any idea what date or if it came with marbles?

Good time of year to warm things up

Good luck with that one. The nuances even within the group make for a tough ID.

This is a pretty cool looker. Almost Dali-like or Steranko

Doodling is fun,

Sharp cheddar, on a ritz cracker, stacked with a bit of Noah Martin summer sausage would probably do you well. I hear your plight.

Still wondering about the one on the left, anyone in the know please advise

jmac, curious if you reached a conclusion to your above opinions in the last month and a half? Anything?

Cool, sorry I missed out on the Oxblood month. Here's various non-silver "metallic" and the weirdest pink metallic I've seen

Fun doorstops,

I believe there are earlier examples of this before Jabo. Rumor has it, back in the old days certain beer/beverage cans somehow ended up in with the molten glass (the results can range from everything between brown, dull, silver etc.) But who knows. Could be some of the marble companies of that era were getting reclaim/recycled materials from other glass companies that did leaded/stained glass. Somebody posted a pic of some vintage ones a while back.

Wouldn't have guessed the purple/white as CA, but they very well could be. Nice group

Blink an eye and it's 3 years later, lol. So this is what I've found since (curiosity never sleeps, for some of us right?). The top pic is apparently an oiler from WW1, the C being for Canada and the 'broad arrow' or 'crows foot' within is a British military mark. The second pic shows the mark of Henry Loveridge & Co. Wouldn't have figured that one out until I saw it on a second (more ornate) piece that literally spelled it out . Thanks for the links and help

Still looking for about a dozen to complete my 1-120 run of MAD mags (but that's a different topic) so, yes Bob, thought crossed my mind. lol
