Left is a Vitro Blackline All-Red. The right ... that long flat seem in the second view is moving me away from Master. Maybe Master. But maybe European? I don't know!

I'm not sure what the white one technically would be. I mostly leave mine together. Tiny Ben looks impish.

How many marbles am I looking at? There does seem to be a bit of Master in there. Some kind of damage on the last picture. But I don't know if it's some big chip or the result of a mishap during production.

Not rare but quite popular.

This is a Tiger Eye. About 10 or 15 years after the Conquerors.

5/8" give or take?

I think it's an Akro. I don't know the collector's name for it.

Vitro made the Helmets. If it's called a Helmet by most collectors, it's a Vitro. (For some time, it was thought maybe Akro made them, but that has been cleared up. Only Vitro.) I'm not seeing Helmets here, but they do appear to mostly be Vitro. (I'm not sure about the blue one on the bottom middle.) Bottom right Conqueror. I think top right may be in the Conqueror family also, but with a blue base I'm not 100% where it lands.

#3 might be a patch. Maybe a Marble King. I _think_ I'm seeing long seams on it. The others would be swirls. I think Alley on #2. On #1, I once again have my usual thought when I see a purple and red swirls ... that I really should remember it from the last time I saw it but for some reason the maker doesn't stick.

Hi Matt. I thought about waving ... but I didn't have an answer for you so I kept my peace.

Thanks, Ron!

I think Vacor on the left. On the right, not sure. How big of "shooter size"? I'm sort of leaning Jabo, but I'm not ruling out an older swirl.

Yes, looks like a St. Marys cat's eye. The ideal for a blue and yellow would be to have two blue vanes across from each other and two yellow vanes across from each other, with a clean separation. But there was a wide range of variation.

That's a Master. Not a sparkler.

The top one in that last photo looks like it might have three vane colors - white, light blue, darker blue.

I think Alley swirl on the left. Akro corkscrew on the right.

Yes, Vitro. Conquerors.

I think two West Virginia swirls and then possibly a Pelt.

The top one in the bottom photo might be an Asian cat's eye. The rest would go with my Pelt bananas. (I'm not totally sure about aqua being a Pelt color -- so I would wonder if it might be Master), but I would have it with the Pelt bananas while I thought about it some more.

I think @spara50 may have had one of the groups I am thinking of.

A loose lot? No bags? I see Alleys!

I remember some unusual Vacor patches having been posted some ten years ago ... and I vaguely remember them as possibly having been encountered at Moon Marbles. Does this ring a bell with anyone? Anyone save the picture? .... or have the marbles?

I guess. I don't know if they have a better name.

Simply put, the colored glass is in a layer on top of the base glass. There's probably technically more than that since there were marbles from the 40's which had colored glass on the surface of the marble (Vitro Conquerors) but they weren't considered to be veneered. This picture is of Marble Kings rather than Vitros, but the broken cubscout shows the layer of color veneered onto the white Marble King base.
