So far I am leaning Master because of how lines seem to radiate out from what looks like it could be a U-shaped cutline in this last view.
-
Interesting marble. I don't know. The windows on the ends make me it could be a vintage Japanese marble.
-
Welcome, Jen.
I so wish I had thought to rescue my dad's childhood marble bag before he decided that it was too worn to keep any longer. I knew about his bag before I started collecting marbles, but after I started collecting I let a few years lapse before it occurred to me to ask him about it, and when I asked it was too late. -
That's what I was thinking. If older, they look like Vitro, but they have sort of a modern Vacor look.

I think you should have an easier time uploading the pictures you want now. No need to make them small. Check it out.
-
Hang on ... we have a fix coming for the size problem. It should be easier to upload your pictures soon.
-
Does it have small cutlines like a Master?
-
The orangey-red one, I still don't know. Is it glass?
-
Too small now.
Maybe you could cut out more of the excess area? -
(So, I don't know if it would be called a Sunburst or not, but same maker.)
-
Your green one has a good chance of being Master. Some small part of me wondered if it might be a modern marble which resembles Masters. But I think probably Master.
-
(Well, I mean your marble is a Peltier Rainbo ... which ever one it is that you think it might resemble.
)
My avatar marble is a Dave's Appalachian Swirl.
-
(not really sure about maker -- first thought was Akro cork, but I'm not really seeing that after all)
-
The right appears to be very worn glass.
-
Left to right, I think:
WV swirl, Marble King Rainbow, Marble King Tri-Color Rainbow, WV swirl, Vitro TriLite, maybe a slag
-
This is a Peltier Rainbo.
-
Good chance of Jabo on the last one.
Need different views of the first one. If the ribbons stretch in a way that their ends might form a top and a bottom of the marble, then need those views. -
.... could become very expensive!
But this is coming my way ....
-
The top might have been someone's favorite shooter! I can't tell what it is behind the damage.
The middle is a Vitro Tiger Eye from the 1950's.
The bottom is a West Virginia swirl. Many WV companies were making these in the 30's through 50's.

festive!
Happy New Year, Bo.

Hi Chuck!
-
interesting
-
Mostly cat's eyes. A few Masters maybe? I don't see any handmades.
The most interesting ones to me are the clear with the white ribbons on the edges which probably are Vitro cat's eyes, but it's an interesting construction. If there are 8 ribbons there, then that might be special.
Soooo .... yes, some people would probably call it slingshot ammo. Except the possible 8-ribbons cats.
$15? -
Hi. Yes, I didn't know Art well, but I do remember him.
From here in Wisconsin.

Purple and white?
in Marble I.D.'s

I think some kind of West Virginia Swirl.
(The question might have been between slag and swirl with those colors -- and I'm saying swirl.)
There were several companies who could have made it in the 30's through 50's. Others such as Ron ( @wvrons) might be able to narrow it down to one or two companies. I can't.
