    I checked your file size and it appears to be 57.2 kb. That should have been small enough. Did you try to upload it and it was rejected? I uploaded it for you. I hope that's okay. I saved your old pic in case you weren't quite ready to make the switch.
  3. Welcome. The blue marble is ceramic. It's called a Bennington. It was made in Germany between about 1850 and 1930. Might need more views of the yellow and green. My first thought is a Peltier patch.

    I use Windows Paint to resize. But also you could send it to me.
  5. Fun. I don't have that one. Welcome to the forum.
  6. Wouldn't have guessed it was Mexican!
  7. Actually now that I think of it, I got one or two others with this one. I need to find them I suspect I would find some traces of green. I suspect that's why I have this single shot ready at hand and not the group photo. I was trying to make the Akro-lookalike point. Having other colors showing would have muddied the illusion.
  8. This is one of my Jabo oxbloods. I don't know what other colors might have been in other marbles from this run. I chose this particular marble because it compared so well with Akro.
  9. I imagine the workshop size varied. I have been under the impression that there were many shops, sometimes small ones whose names we will never know. But I think the low wages and child labor parts are correct.

    Kokomo?

    I would be interested in trying to back-up my belief with packaging but I am doing the chicken-without-a-head routine right now. So all I can say is that for some reason I am under the impression that these cross-throughs with the deep meaty ribbons are NLR-era, like most of the multicolor rainbos.

    Kokomo?

    I would go with Pelt based on my belief that this cross-through style was made earlier than the production dates at Kokomo.

    Weird slag

    German crossed my mind, but not the classic CAC-like seam that I think of with Germans so I nodded along with the Master ID's.
  13. JABO started with the purchase of Bogard. Then they bought Vitro. Those are the two I know about.
  14. I got lemon from the dollar store, blueberry from an Amish store, and pumpkin spice from a clearance rack at a grocery store. The lemon and blueberry ones were quite good. The expired pumpkin spice was rubber-ball-like, but I'm still glad I tried them.
  15. I have no idea of the answer, but it's good to have a dream!
  16. Good on eBay for making the seller do the right thing.
  17. And the crowd goes wild!!
  18. Well that's a good way to be. And it's all the hint that I can think to give you for now!
