The bottom right may be an Akro Moss Agate. Not seeing much of it so it's possible that other views could turn it into something else. But from this one view it looks like an Akro Moss Agate.

The top 2 marbles here are Marble King Bumblebees.
-
These are Vitro Yellow Jackets

I split up the Any ideas? thread where I could. Rather than add new groups of marbles onto a thread where there has already been much discussion, it is better to start a new thread. Also, it is better to have smaller groups in each thread. A greater percentage of marbles will get ID-ed if you only have a few marbles per thread.

I love the look of clearies. And the clearies helped Vitro stay open in the 1950's when American marble companies were struggling with the popularity of the new cat's eyes which were coming over from Japan. So historically important too!

.... but that IS what the colors reminded me of.

Welcome. We'll do our best to help.

Vitro Tri-Lites. I don't know if they have any other name.

It certainly would be more than "near mint". If the flaws ARE indeed as made, then of the available terms to describe it "mint" would be the only apt term that I know of. So I would have no problem with saying "mint" followed by a description of the as-made flaws.

Hello. Welcome. I am pretty sure I have seen these ID-ed as Master by reputable collectors. The colors are so bright I wonder if it could be something else. But Master is the best option I have at the moment.

How old is this guy? When was he a kid? If he was a kid in the 70's/80's I suppose they could be from then. But they could also be from last year. Modern Asian.

Absolutely Imperial no doubt to me

I think it could be a Vacor Sunset. Here are most of mine. Quite a range of variation within the basic color pallette.
-
I think predominantly modern. For example, I believe this to be one from my favorite Vacor style. A Sunset. I also think Vacor on the blue-based ones you highlighted.
-
I think Marble King Beach Ball on the first. I also am unsure on the second.

Aw, granbaby time. Sweet.

In the 1873_001 document. Good catch. If that was a test for the rest of us to see if we would miss those sections, then we failed. -
Some lovely marbles there. Welcome.
-
Peltier actually did name a marble Sunset ... back in 1930-ish. It was part of the National Line. But few people know that and we don't call them that. As Gladys said, to us Sunset is a name we use for some Rainbos.

Hi. Welcome. The history is my favorite part of collecting. I have read a lot about tournaments. Looking forward to some interesting exchanges.

I feel your pain. Good lesson.
