Listening to this again -- I LOVE this one!

Sad about regional restrictions. I posted the Tokens. I was not aware of the Tight Fit recording. I am listening to it now. Here is Tight Fit:

T-Rex, pics from ebay seller lorean8902

Mega, Vacor, Fabricas Selectas, however they are presented I know style names may not always be known -- like for marbles sold in the variety nets. Even if a style is already represented, feel free to add more examples. We know they could differ from run to run. More is better here.

Josh, I did wonder about the purple and reds maybe being Vacor. I couldn't think of which style name to look up, so thank you for that. I _think_ the structure on Doug's looks Akro on this marble. But I haven't been sure about that on all of his purple and reds. Here is a T-Rex listing in case anyone wants to compare: http://www.ebay.com/itm/171850632597

I'm not sure I follow. I'll say "on the tracks" if we're talking standard usage. If it's humor, all bets are off. I need some context.

Thank you much!

It's a gorgeous marble.

I sooooo wanted to say that but I was afraid. Was hunting through Cairo and Ravenswood pix.

I feel like I've seen that one also ... but where? Checked several possibilities and not found it yet.

The ribbon structure on this one is ... different .....

Very nice. Aquatic.

What part of the glass is the blue in? From the transparent area? Or from the solid below the transparent area?

Transparent? Or translucent? (Is the white ribbon giving the translucent effect in the photograph?)

Akro corkscrew for top and bottom. West Virginia Swirl in the middle. All belong with your older marbles.

What is your choice, Greg?

Sometimes you just gotta ....

Greycoat ... Graycoat ... Gray Coat .... ???? spelling? Posted by Bo Stiff Courtesy of Raymond Anderson http://marbleconnection.com/topic/10144-peltier-greycoat/

Beautiful story and beautiful marble. ... look forward to getting a peek at those other pelts ....

Akro Corkscrew. 1930's. Put that one in the good pile. I'm not sure but it _might_ have a special name. It _might_ be called a "Blood and Bones". Don't take my word for that. Definitely wait until someone else confirms or contradicts. About the modern ones, mostly it means they have little value. However, Jabo classics such as yours are growing in value. So I recommend separating out the Jabo classics and putting them on ebay separately from the Asians. (Assuming ebay is the destination of any of these marbles.)

Bob (kbobam) bought it and posted it for our enjoyment and I gushed over it and called it mine ... and next thing I knew it was in the mail. I keep it here at my desk.

Looks like one to me also. I hope it is one. And thank you.

Agree on the first two being newer. I think the first could be Asian. The second is Jabo. Both would be modern. And agree about the last possibly being an Akro cork but also more pictures of that one would be nice to try to be sure.
