Welcome! Glad to have a look. You could start a thread with a big group pic to give us a general feel for what marbles you have. Then for specific ID's it's best to keep the number of marbles per thread small and arranged so that it's easy for us to point to which marble we're talking about.

I think I see some Bullseyes in there. Do I? Bullseyes would be vintage.

Can't figure this one out? translucent blue base .61
Steph replied to Gladys's topic in Marble I.D.'s
I'm seeing tan in the base also. Tan and blue together should mean something to someone. Just on the white I was thinking of something like Heaton or Cairo Novelty, but I bet the tan and blue will be more helpful in the hands of someone who actually knows swirls. -
P.S. Yes, Akro Moss Agate here
-
Most people are referring to the same base when they Moss or Ace. I have an off-and-on crusade to remind people that Akro used Ace for a different kind of base.

pretty pictures
-
I can more readily see Vitro in the middle with your new pix. Hang on. It's not three strikes yet. The refs are reviewing the playback.
-
Don't stand between me and my jackhammer!

Akro on left. I'll go Pelt on the right. I was leaning Pelt in the middle also in spite of not having pairs of yellow and pairs of white but ??? Basically I won't be surprised by what anybody says about that one.
-
Agreed.
-
My first thought also was Alley.
-
Master seems a possibility. I'm not getting a particularly foreign feel from them.
-
Alley sounds good on the left. The right looks vintage to me. The glass looks Akro-y to me but not with those distinct stripes. Does the base light up under UV? The pattern could be Peltier. That color combination would make it a remarkable Peltier if that's what it is.

Heavy! Big gigantic hug. Welcome back.
-
My first thought was that I was seeing Akro here. I quickly became uncertain. But the first thought is worth considering.
-
Tommy, Alan dressed up my sparkler photo, a long time ago.
-
If that's a Vitro, I think it would qualify as a Helmet.
-
Move them over to your Akros.
-
Cool, Ron. I wondered about CAC. I figured I shouldn't get Bo's hopes up though since even an Alley like that would be pretty nice.
-
Okay, I have planted the seed.
-
Where is my mind! I still haven't introduced them to marbles yet. I'll go try that now.
-
I'm not 100% about it but I think MK is a good guess.
-
Venture into the UNKNOWN? Thank you size .64 ... NOT translucent
Steph replied to Gladys's topic in Marble I.D.'s
I'm wondering if it's a slag. -
At 5/8" that's a very interesting swirl. I'm going to guess Alley but mostly I'm bumping this in case it brings a better guess from someone who knows swirls!
