Marble mail is the best! That flamey transparent swirl in the gallery is pretty great too.

Oh gosh, the ones I was thinking of ... @mibstified's mibs ... it's turns out they're kinda bubbly .... so back to the drawing board. http://marbleconnection.com/topic/7815-cac-trans-swirls/

I don't see slag. I see swirl. Now, whether it's a WV Swirl or a CAC ... no opinion.

That's why some people upload to their album instead and then you can copy the address from the album and paste in a thread. ... or have you run out of room in your album?!

Snowing all day. Hard to say how much with the wind blowing like it is. 0 inches at some spots on the driveway. A foot high in other spots.

Did you try to attach pix? They might be too large. If the purple is amethyst, that could mean Heaton or Marble King. Lavender could be Vitro or Marble King. The most purply one I can remember seeing -- I think was a Vacor de Mexico. Hopefully we can get those pix.

Fixed! The fabulous pictures are hosted at Pinterest now instead of Photobucket.

Sorry about that. Feel better!

Oh gosh ... @BobBlock ... are you in the neighborhood? Could be from the1800's, but I don't have a clue on value.

Yes.

red based with red ribbons ... brand new to me. I just have some of the standard rainbo-like kokos ... I don't think I have a red

I have a master which glows, but it's not bright and I don't think it's "brushed". An excuse to pull out the blacklight.

Is this the baby blue one you mentioned? The structure of that (the small u-shaped cutline) together with the colors indicate that this one is a modern Asian marble. We call it an Imperial, because the Imperial Toy Company is one of the companies which distributed them in America.

Hi Karen. Welcome.

I started to post this link ... but now I see I already have it. It's a goooood link if you want to study Vacors.

At this time yesterday my stepmother in Weslaco, TX (VERY far south) had more snow than we did up here in Wisconsin (quite far north). We finally caught up overnight, but that was nuts!

Hi superchick! You probably saw Jelle's youtube channel. He sometimes posts here. @YellowMarble Welcome to our world!

Hi Mike. Hi Rick. Hi Sami. Hi John-Boy. Sorry, John. Couldn't resist.

If Vitro, that style would probably be from the 1950's. For what it's worth. They moved away from the solid vanes and to the cage style before the 1960's, I think. Still seems a good chance of Marble King with the four vanes. But okay. Any time.

How many "vanes"? Is it four or five? ... or more? How about a photo showing those? Like a photo looking straight at this part:

Number 1 -- the green and clear -- could be an odd Vitro Conqueror. I'm getting a Vitro vibe from it in any case. #2 is a slag -- looking Akro from here. #3 is a Vitro Conqueror. #4 ... I think another Vitro. Wondering if it is an "Opal". Does it have "fire" (an orangish glow) inside the milky interior when you hold it up to a light?

Hi. Welcome. More pix could help. First of all, it appears to be a cat's eye. Is it large (nearly 1" across?). Or smaller -- standard size is 5/8" across. Shooter size is 3/4" across. From your picture, I'm getting the impression it could be large sized. So, pretty sure it's a cat's eye. So one question is whether it's a Marble King cat's eye or a Vitro cat's eye. That's where more picture could come in handy.
