This is hilarious!

Mold or fungus?

I agree with Steph , the marble stands on its merits. Great AV! Four color is , I believe, still the word on parrots. And parakeets? Well, i know some people like the term and some don't. Long time Vitro collectors have id'd parrots as small as 5/8ths.

So creative!

Wonderful! So fun!

That's fantastic Rodney!

I sure don't. I wish I had made a list when I saw them for sale

Yep , green katydid. They make beautiful bug music in the evening:)

Love it!

This is wonderful info! Thanks Ann!

That is the box graphics I saw in George's binder of photos. Thanks Steph!

I could be way off but I am thinking Vitro as well. There is two pretty straight seams , older looking syrupy glass , Vitro orange thin lines and bright white. ??

No prob Steph. I had the opportunity to look through George's binders and saw a very unusual Peltier add for --- if I remember correctly -- Peltier "Smilies" . It was a green box with yellow marbles pictured on the face. Anyone know anything about these? I never saw this before and am quite curious..... THX!

I only have one.... of some great looking Vitro packaging...

That's interesting. I never thought about Fabers possibly being Webers. Weavers probably are connected in some way also. I thought I heard Weber actually does mean weaver (?) For the record, my maiden name has only one b.

So , in my humble opinion, I think the bug "holding things together" is actually caught. In the web. I don't think it is a spider. And BTW I am a "weber" also. You from NE Ohio?

Steak, salad, a beer and marbles = perfect!

Never realized there were so many!

Thank you so much for this! It is great to have a comprehensive, consolidated list

Yes, there were. I have a few.

Well, I am enjoying every one. Thanks!

Thanks so much! That helps me understand!

Georgeous pics!!!! Helps newbies to learn. Thanks eveyone. With all these pics to look at, It begs the question, Nine and tails can take on both a very defined as well as somewhat of a deformed state correct? And not all will have pontil marks since it is a trait of more than one company from different decades ???? Help--? Do any newer or existing companies ever replicate the 9 and tail? Thanks for ant expertise input!

And I have only started to collect. These little orbs pull you in. It's hard to stop looking at them. It's mesmerizing.
