Thanks, Ron. Somehow I had gotten the idea that peewee would make it more likely to be Alley.

Akro sounds good to me also.

I wanna say Alley. But wait for one of the Alley guys .....

coooool

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.

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.

You think that's it? I wasn't sure at all about that. They're not all that old.

Hello. I think of you whenever I have a bead question.

OOoooh, that big red white and blue looks like candy

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.

Bottom right might be modern, maybe from Mexico.

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.

So here's this instead

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.

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

mama mia!

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.

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.

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.

thanks for the 411
