  1. Without packaging or other provenance it can be difficult to tell which decade the cage-style cats came from. The Parkersburg location was making cage style cats from the 1960s to 1989. Anacortes only had a small time to operate -- 1989 to 1992. So odds are Parkersburg for most loose cages. There's something romantic about the name Anacortes, isn't there. We want marbles to be that even though that actually means they're more modern. ( :
  2. Art could be correct, but my first thought was actually Akro Cornelian. *wishful thinking*
  3. Did you mean to include a photo or link?
  4. Steph

    Peltier?

    Not seeing Pelt on first. Could it be Akro?
  5. Not sure on the right. Will wait for other answers.
  6. That said, I am seeing Vitro Superior on the left, a different type of tri-lite
  7. For a time it was thought that Akro made helmets. Now helmets are known to be Vitro. They are in fact a type of Tri-lite.
  8. I went to the Argentina ebay and looked up Huracán canicas. No luck! But wouldn't it have been cool.
  9. Thanks, Chuck! And good call, Charlie.
  10. Well, it means it's not the Alley style that I was picturing. So now I await the verdict on whether it is a Jackson.
  11. Heh ... a white ribbon on that dark base? I thought black on white base. I really missed this one!
  12. Hi. Welcome. If you love it, that's the value. I call it a logo marble. Sometimes an organization or company will specially commission logo marbles with a legitimate manufacturer who has legal permission to use the images. Most often though for the past 40 years or so, it will be an Asian manufacturer who did the work, without legal permission, and thus for much lower cost than the companies who obtain legal licenses. I don't recognize yours, so just take my answer as general background.
  13. I could see why someone would think Peltier based on the colors and textures, but I'm not seeing the ribbon structure I would expect in a Pelt.
  14. I'm still sticking with Alley but I will call in a swirl guru. @cheese?
  15. It does help. With that base glass and the obsidian black I think Alley Agate. Wait for other opinions!
  16. Hi. Welcome. What diameter is your marble?
  17. Maybe one of the modern contract runs. @Nantucketdink?
  18. Nice addition for the marblearium.
  19. If there is aventurine in that green, it is not coming through on my computer screen.
