Picture 1 shows mostly cat's eyes and mostly American made. A lot of Vitro cage style cat's eyes and some single color non-cage-style which may include some Marble Kings or may also be Vitros.

The big blue clearie at the bottom left looks like it might have an iridescent coating, which would suggest that it is foreign. Is that the same marble as in Picture 4?

These fall in the range of "commons", and so are generally worth only a few cents apiece. Some exceptions noted in next post.

I thought I could find a box pic with bases like that, but ribbons which were more red.

Looked three times though and didn't come with what I thought I recalled.

Liking the big red and yellow rainbo.

You know I love that pic!

You're an artist.

Kool! Thanks.

For that, I will share this here

More good stuff. Thanks!

Neat.

Thanks, guys, for keeping the thread going.

For the record, I don't see a whiff of unethicalness in meeting up with a friend to make sure you get to as many auctions as possible.

Wonderful that you guys could hang out and have marble fun.

If anyone wants to add thoughts on this, I'll break this discussion off into a thread about auction philosophies. For now, let's enjoy the marbles.

oh baby, what is that?

Starry starry night.

mmmmmmmmmmmmm

I think I've seen someone show results from Payne-related digging.

Ravenswood is what I would guess if someone ordered me to guess or walk the plank.

It does look like Peltier to me.

The bottom right view even has a little grain/feathering in it.

*feel the endorphins*

I'm not as sure about Navarre on this one as I was on the last, but the structure looks right for it.


Hopefully someone else will know. Time to break out the popcorn.

So that's a pontil with something black blooming from it inside?
