    I should have thought to compare image size before I made my guess about what No. 10 might mean.

    Doh, I never think of Carnelian. To me it doesn't look like the marbles I've seen in Akro Carnelian packaging, but maybe collectors call it that.

    Cool. Thanks for posting. Both new to me.

    Does this link work to view all the pics? p.s., I just noticed a Vitro box I've never seen before.

    "I thought Jackson marbles never made it to market" Are you thinking of Davis?

    Here's an Akro chart. Click to make it a little bigger. I'm sure I have a larger copy somewhere if needed.

    I think 1/2" is 000. 00 = 9/16" 0 = 5/8" 1 = 11/16" 2 = 3/4" 4 = 7/8" 6 = 1" That might make No. 10 = 1 1/4". There is a reference to No. 10 MFC's here, but I don't see the measurement. I think those sizes apply to many/most/all American made. But German marbles could be different.

    Dang! Good luck. Are you sure you don't want to break those up into smaller lots? I'd think some of the Vitro items would have great appeal as standalones. Edit: and I made that comment before I even saw the Blackbeard's Treasure Chest box. But seriously good luck.

    If that has a name, I don't know it. It makes me think of Imperial, though not the type which is most commonly called Imperial. There were several different kinds of marbles which were sold in Imperial boxes and I wonder if this might have been one.

    I take it that's unusual? I don't remember seeing olive glass before on a handmade.

    That box of 80 clays is interesting.

    For us non-handmade-collectors, what makes it an oddity?

    Congrats!

    So you mean there were some small patches as well as the large ones? I read an article -- an old article -- which said Ravenswood was able to make large marbles. I think 1" was specified.
