  1. Done! Thanks for the informative bump. Much appreciated.
  2. Hi. Welcome. Condition is super important to value. I'm not recognizing anything that would hold much value even with damage. The one that is standing out most to me is the red and green swirl near the top. That green solid colored marble is a little larger than the typical solid colored "game marble". There is some tiny theoretical chance that it could be something special. Closer up photos of that one _might_ let us figure out if it was one of the few types of opaques which is considered collectable.
  3. ❀️ Your backyard?
  4. Yeah, could be a nontypical Akro Moss Agate.
  5. Is this the only view of this marble, or am I not piecing it together with it's companion photos above? If this is the only view, I would be interested in seeing more. Maybe an Akro. Would like to make a more informed conclusion though.
  6. To get you started. I think these are from near the end of Akro's production. Colors and textures vary from the early production to the end.
  7. I'm thinking Akro here also. Check out Akro Royals and Akro TriColor patches. In spite of the faint but substantial green I'm thinking that this one wanted to be an Akro Royal (two colors, and white is counted as a color). Maybe it's an actual hybrid between a black run and a green run. Tri-Color Agates had three or more intentional colors -- white also counted as a color there. One reason I think hybrid Royal rather than TriColor on this one is that the colors are ones that I would see on Royals, not what I remember encountering in TriColor patch packaging.
  8. I don't recognize them for sure, but Jabo seems a strong likelihood to me.
  9. LOL ... in general chat now .... How big do we have to be to be a toe breaker? I have some big beautiful Vacor Sunsets, but not sure if they're big enough.
  10. Welcome, Pete. You have some beauties.
  11. Would be MF Christensen, not plain Christensen. I'm rooting for a yes here from people who know their bricks.
  12. Yeah, the Color Tip marble is not one I'm familiar with. Obviously I saw the discussion last year. But it didn't stick. Don't think I've seen one in person.
  13. So then we have this thread and I'm quite confused ... Cosmic Rainbows - Marble I.D.'s - Marble Connection
  14. Cosmic Rainbow sounds good to me. I guess I could see it being claimed as an MK. I would want to have that done by someone that I have confidence in though. Until then, I would keep it with my other CRs.
  15. Today I decided I do not collect vaseline glass dishes. I had only three before today. Then this morning I had a chance to buy a large number of matching dishes, which forced me to admit I don't have the room for a dish collection. So I still have only three. I'll stick with the small items.
  16. If I want to give the little cat a treat and not the dieting cat, I have to go to the opposite end of the house and open the package as quietly as I can. That will work half the time.
  17. Sweet story about Ozzie. "His" was 12 pounds when we got her at age 3 and then she suddenly ballooned to 19. Now back down to 17 with a better diet and more activity. And she is STRONG. Definitely want her on my side in a fight.
  18. OMG, those giant nutcrackers ... . Only two ... at this time. His and hers tabbies. The little one is mine. She is a little bigger now, but happily she's still lapsize instead of quarterback size.
