Bottom row looks modern.  And larger for cat's eyes typically will mean 1970's or later.  

But four-vane turquoise with a clear base could be from Japan and could be earlier.  

Really hard to tell age or maker with clearies.

If there is an iridescent finish that helps to ID them as modern.  If they're just colored transparent glass, then could be 80 years old or almost new or in between.

The small red, white and orange on the right is a 1960's pattern, but if that's iridescent, then it would be modern.

Not sure about the structure on the clear ones. If they turn out to be Vitro cat's caged cat's eyes, they could be a little older.

The rest look modern.  

Hi. Welcome.  It looks like you have a mix of ages, from possibly the 1800's through the 1960's and maybe later.  A lot of old ones.

Some chinas.  Clays.  One ceramic which I wonder if it might have been made in America.  Slags. Akro corkscrews.  Vitro All-Reds. Maybe some Christensen Agate. And some Cat's Eyes. 

Perhaps post a new thread with a few marbles in it.  And a new thread for each new group of a few marbles.  That makes it easier to identify which marbles we are discussing.

Those are Vacor Bumblebees. Modern.

I don't think the black and yellows are the newer MK's.  The newer MK's that I have in mine have black around the middle and yellow patches on the end.  Pretty sure these are foreign. Probably Vacor. 

I think you have an Akro.

An Akro Milky Oxblood. 

Got it!

I am getting better at telling them apart, but still not comfortable.  Onionskins are supposed to have a layer of white or yellow behind the colorful part. (Do I have that right, folks?)

Well ... I'm going to move this one to the main chat area, because that's what I do for handmade names.

Maybe some more views or different lighting ... or a little larger ... might help.

Is the left opaque?  The size and single-color nature makes it look like a game marble.  If the "slight wrinkle" is a small cutline that could help give an idea of maker, but on the game marbles it's hard to pin a maker down.

They look like clay.  I don't think the fluorescence means much. Maybe something about what chemicals might have been used in the coloring.

I think you're right. 

To go with the right two, the left is probably Jabo also.

The middle looks like a WV Swirl.  

I think #2 could turn out to be a Pelt Multicolor Rainbo.

I think Alley Agate.  

You are most welcome.  I love seeing what marbles come from European countries. 

Did there use to be more interest?  Do you think there are many collections hiding away waiting for people  to say, "Oh, I've had these lying around for ages -- I didn't know anyone would like them."

Don't know.

Wondering about Cairo Novelty.  But I've tried to suppress my Cairo guesses because there can't be as many of those as I used to want there to be.

Poor pups!  Looks like it will be a week before we get relief.  Our trusty mail carrier today:

At that size and with the iridescent finish, that would be a modern marble, likely made in Mexico.  Vacor de Mexico is the main producer of marbles greater than  25 mm.  

It's very pretty.  Someone might be willing to pay a few dollars for it.   Larger marbles have their own appeal.   It's possible that it's still being made though. 

Hello.  Welcome to the forum. 

Those bottom marbles (labeled A) are popular ones.  They're called wirepulls.  Made by Veiligglas in Amsterdam in the 50's and 60's.    

The picture labeled B has more common-looking marbles. If those were found here in America, I would say easily American on them. Mostly Marble King, with maybe some Vitro, and maybe a few West Virginia swirls.  These companies did export to Europe.

Hi.  Welcome.  Nothing is jumping out as very  valuable. I see a couple of Akro popeyes which can run you $10 or more depending on color combination.   The lot could possibly add up to $200 worth if the marbles are mint.  Condition is very important for value and it looks like condition could be an issue here. 

There are a lot of old ones, which could be useful if you're just learning to ID marbles.  


 

I agree on Jabo.

That's great!







Go Rams!

I also have a Ravenswood with a somewhat similar brown ribbon but I think the color looks more like my Alley.

I have an Alley with a similar colored brown ribbon. 

I see your dilemma.

Size?  If 5/8, then I'll lean toward WV swirl.
