What is the size of it? Bob sold them by size. The three inch ones were $68. The one inch were $22-25. No telling what it's worth now. Probably depends on who is bidding. It's pretty. I have some of his red, white, and blue marbles purchased from him. That was probably made at the same time. His brother Dick Hamon would pick the marbles to be sold to the collector's club and the ones not picked weren't made again . Do you have any idea what you want for it?

This one is a 3 inch and I would let it go for $80 shipped it looks like most of his 3 inch ones are going around $100 + shipping.

The bands are red and white and it looks like a little pink. Its hard to describe so I will post a better picture. What do you think this particular marble might sell for?

Sure looks like Robert L. Hamon . Now Edna has another style to look for.

Edna can have this one for the right price if she wants it! LOL

Here is a picture of the signature. Maybe it will help.

Okay I looked closer at some of these and the only one that has a signature is in the second picture at the bottom left corner with blue swirls and I think it says Robert W Hamoll? does that ring a bell to anyone?

Just a wild guess but the ones in the bag are probably "Stuks Agate" per the label

Manufacturas de Vidrio el Aguila, S.A. = Vancor de Mexico

According to Marblealan's reconstructed guide they have space type names. Like the black with yellow one is called "Jupiter". The black with white and a little blue is called "galaxy".

I thought that but when I searched online I could not find anything in reference to Stuks Agate so I thought I was missing something.

Steph: Once you mentioned it and I inspected it further I think you are correct that it could be a polished stone but it has so many bands of color I assumed it was a glass marble.

Thanks Steph! I appreciate the help.

I have some 20+ year old handmade marbles that I would like to see if anyone can identify/ give me an idea of their value. The first picture is of machine made marbles also 20+ years old.

Does anyone have a copy of the book "Jabo A Classic" I would like to read it and can not find it online. If anyone would like to let me borrow it or buy it I would appreciate it.

Clyde is correct the J&J Fresh start was the first run that Joanne and Jack ever created. The second run that was done on my birthday is the Leo run. As far as the confusion about three runs, we started to do a run in mid July but a rush industrial order came in and we had to make a choice of which run to do. In the end we had to do the industrial run as that is what we knew we would be able to do successfully. I know there is also some confusion about whether or not it was an investor run. The Leo run was Jabo's way of showing everyone that we are still here, still making collector marbles, and still accepting investors for future runs. I ask that anyone keeping a close eye on Jabo please remember we are basically starting from scratch and we may make some mistakes here and there but we promise to provide you with the quality of marbles you are use to seeing out of Jabo.
