this was a bag of Labelled whirlwinds and is an example of a bagged 3/4”. I suppose this one is a new old fashioned as it would have been made by Dave, so my foot in my mouth

I have opened a few legit Champion bags that had single 3/4” marbles as the shooter in the bag. The 3/4” one was always a game marble. I should have a pic or two. I assume they had to have been made on the 5/8” rollers. 13/16” New Old Fashioneds are around too.

I do want to switch which run it was from, but nobody likely cares. There were white base SMM with bright orange and green aventurine in several runs that are all fairly similar. The marble buddies holiday run also has them and this one with the additional brown with black tracer is probably from that run instead of the other 2 I mentioned.

Like was said earlier, SMM marbles run from peewees upto 11/16” routinely. Some of the double ingots and other out of round oversized marbles get a touch over 11/16

I will go pinpoint that one and take some pics, whichever SMM run it is in

I know Jeff has pictures of SMM runs up at the WVMCC site and that’s a general place to look at pictures of SMM marbles.

Actually it was the first SMM run ever that this one was made in. Just checked

Marble Buddies Second Run may be the run this one came from

I think I would be trying to rule out SMM before jumping to Alley at that size.

I want to see if it is more transparent red or mostly yellow on the opposite side

Any chance we could see the other side please. The only new machine made it might be would be a JABO Christmas 2011. It was a 3/4” run but there were lots of smalls in the 5/8” to 11/16” range too.

I believe the second is Vacor

It’s a giant bubble for a 5/8” marble. No fractures either

I remember Galen straightening me out a couple years ago

It’s a worthy endeavor to define striped Transparents here in this thread as there are conflicting definitions in print circulating out there in the world. I was still under the impression it had to be a different color other than white (or in addition to white) and the others with white both on and inside were slags (but no I am not calling transparent swirls slags, just by the slag makers)

I suppose it could just be a patch too

It’s a slag. A striped transparent would have more colors

Some Veiligglas

Just sharing some marbles with similar colors. Here are some Vacor

We should have a special section that shows all of the different transparent green with brown and white swirls out there in the world. A lot of companies made this color combo.
