🫦 Looks familiar. I am optimistic that you can get an answer.

Ooooh .... I'm feeling a Pelt grain on the left and Akro slag on the right.

Yes.

That would rival my moving rate, which would amaze me and fill me with great sympathy for you. I hope that one's not true!

How many languages do you speak?

Correct. His middle name was the numeral 5.

My grandfather's middle name was the numeral 7. I hung out after work with a boy for months before we learned we were second cousins. He was embarrassed because he had almost asked me out on a date. Eli and Peyton Manning are also my cousins.

All true!

This thread is making me realize how boring I am.

The story about the college guy sounds true.

The 2007 book entitled "Arnold Fiedler: Glass & Marble Maker Par Excellence"? I think I have that one.

The color is right for a Christensen Agate, but I don't recognize the classic structural signs of Chrissie so I also have to consider WVS, maybe Alley.

Just popping in for a minute ... don't have any links ... but I do remember references to kids in the olden days going to the bike shops to get ball bearings for play.

At first glance, the structure on the right looked Marble King to me. I don't have blue-based MK cats though. I do have blue-based Vitros, but with a cage style cat. Fwiw, the modern Marble King cats could go a little crazy structurally. I am considering that #2 through 5 (left to right) could all be American-made cats from the same manufacturer, even though #3 obviously doesn't care about fitting in. And a different maker for the larger marble, #1.

I'll jump on Art's train.

Now that I'm seeing yellow on both ends, I'm heading fast to MK-ville.

How do you do it?! The club foot one HAS to be true. I'll say the lie is the white winged crow.

Anacortes Vitro is a choice to consider for a Jabo-feeling patch.

The blue one is very Akro to me. Have seen a boxful of dug ones.

I'm not seeing Vacor cutlines, fwiw.

Akro sounds good to me.

I expect some will say Vitro on the top left, but that green looks Akro to me.

Haven't yet found the four color non-MK that I'm pretty sure I have. But I did find a two-color cross through that doesn't look MK. Was hard to photograph. The vanes are rather sheer and I can barely use my camera anyway. It's two white vanes and two turquoise.

Maybe Master. Second choice Marble King.

So how many places _have_ you lived?
