Sorry about that! Didn't see the instructions about posting too the Calendar of events when I posted this! I'm actually excited about this one as it's only about an hour away from me 👍
I don't think we get notices when things are posted in the calendar. So I surely don't mind people bumping this thread. I've posted a couple both here and in the calendar. Partly to practice using the calendar, but I for one was glad to see your post here.I don't know what happened to the image I posted back in June about the Reno show. Hmmmm ....

With the different colors on the different sides, I'm comfortable with calling it a Kokomo.

Pretty sure Vacor on the right. For now going with Jabo on the left.

My first thought was Akro Tricolor. The Vitro votes surprised me.
-
That's pretty. And cheery.
-
The Champion answers intrigue me.
However, as I was scrolling through the photos before reading any comments, I thought I was seeing a handgathered slag.
-
With those colors I want it to be an unusual Akro!

Is this how some of the Jabo "Contract Runs" got the pink in them?
Cool stuff!
Marble--On!!
I don't know if the Fenton cullet was still being used during the time of the contract runs.
@Nantucketdink would know ....-

So, what has brought me back into the world of marbles? What brought me into the world of Christensen, Alley, Akro, Peltier, Davis, Jabo, Appalachian Swirls was that I recently had the greatest honor of being the caretaker for 3 amazing young earthlings for over 100 days this spring/summer.
I wanted to show them that there is so much more than television and tablets, and I remembered that I used to be pretty good at marbles in my single digit years. So, I bought them each their own set of marbles, and I tought them how to play.

Jabo used Fenton Burmese cullet and got lavender marbles which glow nicely under blacklight, but for the Jabos that I'm thinking of there would be at least one ribbon of a different color than lavender. So other photos could definitely help.

Yeah, not all at once.
Maybe some individually, maybe some groups, and working something out with Alan sounds like it would be a good opportunity.-

If patch, wondering about Vacor Orca.
If swirl, wondering about Vacor Zebra. -
Wait? What? A swirl? I thought I was seeing a patch. Also, I'm heading over to the Vacor page now ...

Modern Marble King ???

Master doesn't have a slag category.
I don't have a name for your marble. It is sort of close to a brushed patch but the white is rather meaty -- doesn't really have the brushed look. If indeed it is a Master, that's what I would call it -- "a Master".

Gotta say "Imperial" for purposes of my facebook debate, but cool bags!

Marble King Rainbow
I call it a Tri-Color Rainbow. That's not an official company name, but I think maybe I learned it from Bob Block.Classic Marble King. Nice size!

What a nice looking marble

Size?
My first two thoughts were
1) "Jabo"
2) "yeah, I could maybe go Alley"
But I'm also wondering about some less common WV swirl. I'm wanting to look up who used Vitrolite.
