    I believe it is a Czech bullet mold, but it is bigger than the few I have.

    Is the base really transparent blue like in the pics? I havent seen Euro Sparklers with tinted bases before. Maybe it is just the blue background.

    I hope it is clear I was saying some Champions have it. I believe some Mid Atlantics have it too. Did MK do it at all(I don't know)?

    I have to see if I can find pics, but I have modern marbles with lashes

    I have never even found a lot with a bunch of high end CACs though...so it does seem odd there would be any Vacors in the same lot
  7. Nantucketdink
    or is it just a Vacor Sunflower with a typical simple fold
  8. Nantucketdink
    Sure looks like a standard Vacor Dragon
  9. Nantucketdink
    can we see the yellow and green in clear better? Looks unusual

    Bottom right one may be JABO

    People go that extra mile sometimes. I can't see the original auction but have no doubt there is somebody somewhere putting fake playwear on new marbles
  12. Nantucketdink
    Here is one of mine. I have more but need to take pics(and find them)

    ugh, that came out tiny. It is Vacor paperwork IDing the Guacamaya top left. Same marble as Dragon. Their example doesn't include the nice extra colors or other variations that can show up in marbles
  14. Nantucketdink
    I believe the Guacamayas and Dragons are the same. These were just a nice early run of them. It is very possible these nice ones didn't get marketed in the USA, but they are the same marble style as the dragons.

    It looks like that one is 11/2” big in the photo. If it is really that big it would likely be Vacor.
  16. Nantucketdink
    Is it a peewee or 17/32”???
  17. Nantucketdink
    It looks like A 2004 JABO Tropical variant and is worth low end 10 cents high end 5 dollars IMHO
  18. Nantucketdink
    first one on left is JABO
  19. Nantucketdink
    Its OK to split them up
  20. Nantucketdink
    and the Bogard ones too
  21. Nantucketdink
    Its a JABO. 2005 I believe. It is named. I think these were named Bert's Berries
  22. Nantucketdink
    What would the initals be? It already has JABO right on it. Did 1-800 numbers start after 1988? I thought we had them back then too when JABO was formed. 1994 would be the absolute earliest it could possibly be, but Ron's date range sounds good.

    One of our local toystores sold marbles out of gumball machines (until they sadly closed last year). Peewees were a dime. 5/8" were a quarter. 1" shooters were 2 quarters. They were mostly Vacors, but she always mixed in a few oddballs here and there to keep it interesting. They were my intro into the marble world as an adult.

    Jose-the bulk of your collection is from 2004 and 2005 if interested in that level of detail (which I imagine you are)
  25. Nantucketdink
    I havent seen that bag before, but its very possible those JABOs are the original contents. There are plenty of modern marble jobbers out there
