  1. Good tip about the dirty glass, Akroorka. You nailed my thinking exactly, the colors felt Master but the glass quality and seams felt Imperial. I was leaning Imperial but wanted input from others. Thanks all!
  2. I thought conquerors have 1 color patch, this one has 2. So maybe it is more a tiger eye. Or maybe it shall remain nameless and just be appreciated for who it is.😀
  3. I was wondering if it might be more what was being called an "Exotic Conqueror" on AAM's Vitro guide page. I think it might be more that than a Tiger Eye too. But it is a tough call, especially since I haven't personally seen a lot of either type.
  4. I was thinking this was a Marble King patch and ribbon style, but in watching MK videos I saw nothing like it or anything with a purple glass. So now I'm thinking it's a Vitro- is that correct? It's 19/32 inches.
  5. Thanks for the feedback all. And thanks Akroorka for the extra info!
  6. And were they trying to imitate the German handmade Indians? It has that feeling to it. It's 39/64 inches.
  7. Thanks all for your help and input! I have read that JABO used an old Vitro machine for some of their runs, resulting in 2 seam marbles that can resemble Vitros. So maybe that is the case here. But the majority leans Vitro, so I'll put it with my Vitros. I like it no matter who made it! It was a killer find.
  8. Just want to confirm this is JABO. Likely "April Fling" run? It's so much nicer than my other 2-seam JABO's. Does anyone know more details about the 2-seam JABOS? It's around 5/8 inches.
  9. Two different seams (one U and one V) and glass qualities, but both seams are typical of Master? (If I'm getting any better at seam ID.) Both are basically 5/8 inches.
  10. Thanks duotone! Maybe, but I think the purple on mine is a lot deeper and I wouldn't describe it a lilac. But I'm not familiar with the Vitro lilacs, so maybe there is more variety in them than the one post shows.
  11. Thanks Laero21. I grabbed it cause my mom would have loved the color- purple was her favorite by far.
  12. It's 41/64 inches and has enough color variation and pattern that I wouldn't call it a game marble.
  13. It's blue, maybe white, on a transparent blue base with a thin line of red or brown. Kinda hard to read... It's 23/32 (.72) inches.
  14. Another attempt to ID by seams- I'm thinking this is a Master. It's 2/3 of an inch on the nose.

    Akro?

    Still trying to learn to ID by seams. I think this one is Akro. It's just a smidge under 3/4 inch.
  16. You're welcome! I'd love to see pictures of any other unique ones people have.
  17. I'm still looking for some of those hybrids. If anyone has any, let me know. And thanks again for the video Stephen!
  18. I found some interesting ones here in the SF Bay area, including a couple of color schemes not mentioned in the video. The first one appears to be orange glass with jelly red strips encased in clear. The last pic is taken under water to show the clear encasing. The second one is Orange on an opaque black. No transparency at all. The third one is white on the transparent blue, but the white is clearly encased in the transparent, not on the surface. The forth one is a pair of the white on transparent green that you mentioned. The fifth one is a really wonky brown on opaque white. It was with a group of normal looking bombers, but it slipped through QC somehow! Have you seen any like these before @stephenb?
