  1. Hi. The bottom pair are Marble King Bumblebees. From around 1955 to 1965. Are the red ones all glass? What size are they? More views could be needed to know if they have a chance of being something other than "game marbles". (Lots of companies made game marbles, over many years, so we are only able to identify a small percentage of them.)
  2. Thanks, Ron. Somehow I had gotten the idea that peewee would make it more likely to be Alley.

    Akro sounds good to me also.
  4. I wanna say Alley. But wait for one of the Alley guys .....
  5. Yeah, I wouldn't argue against the first ones being Master. Even though I'd call most of the patches Akro. Basically I wouldn't argue about 'em. If someone else wants to argue, I'll watch. Lovin' all the peewees.
  6. Yeah ... that was the word ... that Master didn't make peewees. I still don't have evidence that they made 'em on purpose, but they don't seem to be the mythological creature that I once thought they were.
  7. You think that's it? I wasn't sure at all about that. They're not all that old.
  8. Hello. I think of you whenever I have a bead question.
  9. OOoooh, that big red white and blue looks like candy
  10. Not cosmic rainbow, huh? That yellow stripe doesn't really look like c.r. to me, but I had to mention it to get it out of the way.
  11. Bottom right might be modern, maybe from Mexico.
  12. Pretty. I can see why you're struggling. I also thought of Akro, but was shaky on it. Then read down and saw sclsu had answered ... and I felt better.
  13. What Al said. But I'm going to go out on a limb here and say not Akro. I think you're going to turn out to be right about foreign. P.s., welcome

    smiles for connections I think black is almost always considered a color. White is trickier. If you're talking about an Akro Prize name for instance, white counts as a color. For an Akro popeye, we just make sure the white is there, but we kind of ignore it in a color count. I'm pretty sure someone could come up with a better example of white not being counted, but I'm drawing a blank.

    Pelt?

    Are there four ribbons? If Pelt, this might be a "red zebra".

    I should have guessed that.

    Ooops. I said "class". I hope you read "glass". Look at the whites in this Christensen box (posted by Galen). They're mostly bright and smooth. A very opaque look. Your white seems a little softer, maybe a little translucent.

    Pelt rainbo?

    I think we have a Kokomo here. Made on a machine Kokomo got from Peltier.

    To me the white class doesn't seem solid enough for this to be Christensen. I think West Virginia swirl.
  20. Thank you for sharing. A big name from my early collecting years. I was always glad to see him pop in again. A lot of people will miss him.
