  1. With white ribbons on tinted base, I'm going Pelt.
  2. I've heard of that before. Get lifting.

    Vitro at the end. I'll guess Champion for first and Alley for second.

    Vitro Trilite second. Akro Onyx third.
  5. (btw, I actually did tear a couch apart to find a marble once)

    The colors on top make me think of Veiligglas.
  7. Okay ... I _think_ it's a figure 8. That was my first impression. But the ribbons aren't very angled, are they. I suppose it could be a Pelt. In this case, one might consider other clues. What other marbles were found with it?
  8. Figure 8 Figure 8s are cool! Less common than Pelts.
  9. I'm not at all sure about these:
  10. 1950's or 1960's for the Blackies here:
  11. I say Pel-teer. Now. I started with Pel-ti-ay.
  12. Cairo Novelty .... I said it with a long i, rhyming with "eye". Ki-row. But I've heard people who knew the area better calling it something closer to Kay-ro.
  13. I called Jabo once to hear how they said it. They said Jay-bo Vit-row. With the soft i, not e, as Ron said. But I often slip.

    Marble King here -- might have a special name.
  15. Toe breaker? Because of the size? Welcome to the forum, Lucky. Agree with Akro patch.
  16. I sent some by mail with explanations to nieces and nephews. Didn't even get an acknowledgement. I don't say this bitterly ... they're good kids and have sent plenty of acknowledgement of other gifts and communications ... just saying that it was a swing and a miss!
  17. Have a beautiful holiday. And best of luck with your surgery.
