yes

First one is a JABO WVMCC run

When buying most 5/8" size marbles in bulk, I feel an average of 10 cents each is generally a good deal for both buyer and seller. There are about 100 5/8" marbles in a pound. A 25 pound box of 5/8" marbles feels like a good deal to me for $250. Getting/Finding 25 pounds of older mixed maker marbles is the hard part. When you are new to the hobby, it can be difficult to tell the difference between newer and older marbles. Go get them and good hunting!

Can I refer to an internal lutz swirl in a transparent marble as a Schiller now? Killer Schiller.

I hate it when some of my marbles get lost in transit before they make it to my house.

Several JABOs in there if not all of them

Its a bird, its a plane, its a lamp full of Christmas Supermen ready to light up somebody's world.

I just got my full case of the Christmas ones. Yummy. Sorting through a new case of nice unknown marbles is such a joy. Green and red floaters with lutz swirls screams CHRISTMAS to me too.

The weight just gets to be too much over time. I have also filled 2 different giant monster glass bottles that broke "by themself" just sitting there days after they were filled.

To answer your original questions, there were also the Mountaineers in that run that had that great blue. One has to become familiar/acquainted with the different runs to recognize the differences among the various superman colored marbles Dave and company have made. If you handle a bunch of them repeatedly you can recognize the diferences. Pretty much true of all marbles.

I guess since your's doesn't have orange it it, it would technically be unnamed, however, it is very recognizable as from the 2003 JABO 3/4" now known as Superman Run. They are a celebrated and sought after group of marbles.

You know what, I might take my original ID back. It is from the 2003 "Superman Run," but your marble doesn't have any of the reddish color in it at all. The Extraordinaires have brown along with the Superman colors. A Superman has just Superman colors in it. That would make your's technically an Indian Blanket (I think)...need to go refresh my memory.

Dave just recently made some more super sweet similar supermanish marbles.

Like Steph said, Tribute to Friendship.

Yes it is a 2003 JABO Superman.

I can see the white pieces of debris now. They look like they were sprinkled on at the same time as the lutz to me. Probably unintentional junk mixed in with the lutz confetti.

Hit marks probably effect the value of JABOs less than vintage marbles.

the whitish specks sound like hit marks from it hitting other marbles

That top one is SUPER

JABO Joker II Run 4/2/09-4/3/09 is what I believe it is. I call that a lutz confetti.

uh oh. I definitely don't remember that thin blue line in the clear which means...I might not have one of those. Need to go check. Thanks for sharing Steph. Comprehensive photos of JABO runs always APPRECIATED!!!

Most likely it is an Ebay auction number. I looked it up but nothing came up for me.

To sum it up: the big ones are most likely Ultras and the smaller ones are most likely Mylees. They were made about 2 months apart in 2009. A peewee is a small marble that is exactly 1/2" or under. 5/8" is the standard marble size (whatever that means). A 9/16" marble is not a peewee. Calipers or hole templ;ates can be used to measure marbles accurately.

the 2 3/4" ones on the right look like Ultras. All 3 of the smaller ones look pretty big in comparison to be true peewees. The big one on the left front looks intersting. Probably another Ultra, but I like it. The smaller oxbloods are probably just Mylee tankwashes.
