    Du-Lite ?

    I think this is another of the Tri-Lites known as Superior.

    Elite ?

    I think that might have earned an "Elite".
  3. Steph

    Vitro?

    I don't think Vitro. I'll say Master.
  4. Steph

    Tri-Lite

    Yes, a Superior! Older Vitro Marbles (Tri-Lites) (marbleconnection.com)

    Tri-Lite

    Yes. Maybe also a Superior?
  6. I disagree about taking the opaque description literally. Something can be opaque for practical purposes, but maybe not precisely opaque when a strong backlight comes into play. I won't keep arguing about it. Maybe I wasn't looking looking inside a real honest-to-gosh Galaxy when I discovered mysteries within. But I sure thought I was looking at one. *backs quietly out of the door*

    That is such great news. .... but 72 staples .... wow ... one time I about had a fit trying to let a nurse remove two stitches from my pinkie ...... I would need anesthesia for the removal of 72 staples.
  8. Vacor Galaxies sometimes have things inside. I don't know if the Galaxy is the right style name here. I expect something more paint looking with the color on a Galaxy. But yes, have seen such things as cat's eyes inside Galaxies.
  9. From here it looks like it could be an Akro cork with accidental oxblood.
  10. Nice number of twists.

    Great news! Good luck on Wednesday! Get you some food!
  12. Modern MK. Small pink. Much fire inside. Sometimes are assumed to be Akro Moonies.
  13. I think these are Vacor de Mexico. My answer is based on the sometimes sharp vanes and sometimes seeing more than four vane. It's the crystal clear base glass which makes me choose Vacor rather than Asian.
  14. I've been looking at the bottle tonight and wondering whether to open or not! It being lychee made me decide ... not yet. Never had lychee and am a bit wary about exotic fruit flavors. I shall wait at least until I get a second bottle. Then I will take a chance and taste it.
  15. The legendary Andy Davis of the Davis dynasty of marble makers and glass workers has passed away at age 95, Linda Moore Simmons has announced on Facebook.
  16. I would keep it with the Akros for awhile and see if it feels at home.
  17. On the possible Conqueror, I'm saying "maybe" because it looks like a 1940's Conqueror with a little extra shading or a slightly later Bullseye with a somewhat faint ribbon. Anyway, 1940's or 1950's.
  18. The knobbly ones are modern and not made in America. Asian or Mexican. The little blue one is a game marble. Many companies made them over many decades. The other two are Vitro Agate. Looks like a Vitro Trilite, from the 1930's. And then maybe a Vitro Conqueror, which would be from the 1940's.
  19. The first thought that flitted through my mind was the utterly ridiculous "Peltier First or Second Run". Did they even get that big? The second thought was that your Vitro thoughts are quite reasonable. The third thought was "Akro".
  20. Gorgeous Peltier Rainbo on the left. Vitro Superior on the right.
  21. I too am leaning CAC but slags are not my strong suit.
  22. I'm inclined toward Marble King.
