Monitor settings do play a huge part when it comes to interpret colors over a computer. Could be flash setting too The first picture in the first post looks almost brown & tan on my screen. Maybe a washed out pistachio? But there's always going to be different shades of blue, different shades of orange and different shades of pistachio...

Even if there were 300 of those from ~68 years ago, makes a pretty slim chance at seeing too many other's. Pretty exciting find!

Ho Ho Ho! Bottom one has a signature but I can't make it out. ____+93? J_ something?

Must have been a blast digging those ones out, lovin' the handmades!

The first looks Peltier to me fwiw. lol base glass is a bit odd, but if you picture the base as opaque white with those four orange-ish ribbons... looks an awful lot like a Peltier pattern. I've lost track of the citrus combo's but those all are great

That is very very cool...Looks like a lot of fun too! Don't watch too much TV, but will for sure tune in for that episode. Wow!

Some marbles with red & yellow. Mibstified, that's a sweet marble there to me almost looks more like a swirl construction rather than cork (like you'd see on the Akro ade types)

Here's some purply ones. (Nice to also see a couple vintage handmades with purple there, Zaboo)

Best I can do for now Some nice 1's there m!b$

Horse-hair oxblood as far as I know,

Here's a couple more, Nutty. :Sad_headshake_tweetz: bad pistachio joke

Those color chips are too-close-to-call. Most green + black or dark brown could fall under the "pistachio" umbrella, various shades of green + another color too., like darker green?

...but what are the Popeye purists going to say about "clear" being a "color" of the month? Just joking. Love to see pics of the handmades, wow, some nice ones so far, and yes there's a lot of clear in just about most handmades. Clear-ish lat core Not sure what this was supposed to be, but I like it. Scrambled egg? Nice Contemp from somebody...not sure who. A shooter sparkler I think Another Akro from what I hear Some handmades that Leroy helped out with, very nicely. Happy B-day Leroy, sorry I missed ya

Thanks RAR, tham there indeed Elvis Lives..Uh HUh! or at least the duck

Can't be 100% sure, SRB, but similar colors/same lot as the "elephant trunk pattern" on the bottom, just a hunch that they're both Pelt from what I can tell.

A couple hand mades and a "unknown" machine made, Alley? Champion? Brown doesn't strike me as being "the most popular color" with the kids, but just fine with me.

I've seen that sort of rainbow opal/iredescent on dug bottles before. Cool reaction between "whatever's in the ground" and the glass. Almost corkscrew patterns on some, like a bird/elephant/loch-ness Hey MikeyB, those last Mica's were sweet .

I think that "clay" marble is really an indent on a marble board. Optical illusion though. I'd guess those are European of some sort

some pics for Mary When it comes to pelts, and somebody says a "super-flaming-dragon-boy", correct terminology or not, I can pretty much picture what they mean. Some people would cringe at the thought and some people don't like Lima Beans either. It's a diverse world we live in, isn't it? To carry over to another mfg's marble ID for example ...If somebody says a tri-colored flame, I can picture the marble, but not the colors. If it's a tri-colored flame "with superman colors" (right or wrong) I still have a better general idea of what's being talked about. For marble landscaping, those "Bamboo shoots" you can get, grow good when "planted" in a pot of spare marbles.

Nice pictures, good detail. If you didn't have to sort through a whole bunch (ie: 10x as many pics) to choose those you're doing better than most Marbles can be tough to focus on. New Camera?

Thanks for the pictures and the time to share those. That's something not everybody would get a chance to see, wow!!

A couple of my favorites, most interesting to me anyway! Love them handmades Great memories RAR! And yes, Leroy helped me with the last two and I think they're spectacular!

Here's a couple, I was really expecting to see more like these (which I've heard of as snotties before) Darn near impossible to get a picture and see the colors as they appear "in-hand", but I figured snotties and fingers kind of go together.

Nice, you really don't see the agates posted too much. Those are great examples, and good memories to go along with them!

jtay, if that were mine I'd have it in with my Peltiers. That of course wouldn't mean it's a Pelt, but the pattern looks convincing enough from the pics. What size? Frogfullmoon, great pattern on that 1st one.
