Yes JABO Blue Boy

Top left is a JABO, but I have never seen an example of that marble at 1/2”. I bet it is a little bigger than that

Yes on purpose but it was considered a fail as the marbles fractured. There are JABOs with various beads on and partially in them. Human remains have been put on/in them. I have a machine made JABO with a separate marble inside it but don’t know the backstory on it. There are JABOs with all sorts of things swirling in them and confettied on them, however, there aren’t really others with trinkets in them like this.

Either Champion or JABO

I believe the right one is Champion

I believe that one is a DAS. You won’t find Vitros with lutz rods stuck in them.

My favorite thing in there of my collection...a copper star inside this JABO machine made

This one is more on the marble than in it

silver BBs hiding in there for real(not air bubbles)

I like lutz rod nubs

Several companies made marbles with these colors...this one looks like the JABO version of it to me.

The 5/8” marbles are the Classics in this pic. The 3/4” are contract marbles. Most are Encore Run, there are several Moonglow Run, and at least one stray ET Crystal. The single big one inch marble I need another view to see if it is just an oversized Encore, or if it’s a Classic.

Sure looks like what your voice told you to me

Yes

Yes those are the run of Vacor Wicked Owls that look like the original one to me. That’s why I shared the pic. They are older (believed to be the first run of them) instead of a newer run of them.

It looks like a Japanese transitional to me but they don’t get that big. They made them bigger than an inch, but no where near 1.5 inches (that I have ever seen)

Champion I believe

Little late but I still read the post…they are Foxfire 2 Run

2002

Your’s were made in 2003 if interested in more info.

Good call. Very possible

Did the Hardy collection sell/change hands?

It’s a JABO
