Nice clear dragon.

Also Alley.

Alley

Yasuda to me.

Alley. Champion made very few shooters, maybe none this big.

Yes to Alley. The book is by both Eddie Winningham and myself. Eddie is the one who spearheaded and funded this book, he and Kim both have put in a ton of money and effort (more than I have) in this book and it is our book that wouldn't even be happening if it weren't for Eddie and Kim.

They do usually have bubbles. At least the dug ones. I don't know what JABO made so...

I don't know what that one is.

Vitro to me.

Alley.

It's a Vitro Tri-Lite with oxblood. Not a superior. Very nice Vitro!

The brown on some can be thin and transparent and the transparent yellows in the brown over the blue it gives the illusion of olive green. Maybe that's what the OP marble is doing?

I have a video of the marbles jumping on the rollers and some sticking together but I don't think I can post it here. May try to post some videos on youtube one day when I have some time to figure it out.

Brown tracer on my screen. A spring sky is different. Here's a spring sky:

Alley Stormy Skies. Much harder to find than the Blue Skies. Pennsboro. Here's some cullet to match. Looks like a snickers bar stuck in there, doesn't it?

The ingots fall into the grooves of the rollers as they are supposed to because the cutter is timed with the rollers by chain or gears depending on the machine, but when they are super hot and if the ingots are oversized and/or the rollers are grabby or slightly mis-aligned, they can jump and hop in the grooves a little and if one jumps next to another and they happen to touch at all, they stick together immediately with the gummy hot glass and get sucked into one groove or the other. Sometimes they flop around and grab up all the other ingots next to them and you get a messy glob of marbles that the operator will grab with the tongs and pull off. But sometimes the operator is lighting a cigarette or something and a few get by. I've witnessed this at Dave's.

looks like a PPPPPP to me.

This one's not a Jackson. Sometimes I feel like I'm being bossy or kurt by saying an answer matter-of-factly instead of adding "I feel like..." or "I would put it with..." but some I am very certain on (I have Ron Shepher's dug Jackson collection, his big keeper case that we've seen photos of AND his ziplock bags of cullet and other stuff from his garage to study Jackson). I also have dug Champion marbles and examples from their storage buildings, etc.. , enough to have a very strong certainty about this marble and sometimes other marbles, so I don't want to reply in a manner that indicates that I might not be too sure, if that makes sense. Not trying to lay down the law, just trying to show certainty on my end. That doesn't mean I won't listen to arguments saying I am wrong because I have been certain... and wrong... at the same time Lol. Just felt the need to explain that.

Here's an Akro DI. You can see the line going across where one ingot got caught up with another and rounded into one. this usually happens in the first part of the rollers. If it hasn't happened there, it's not going to happen.

Champion

A few more, sorry some of them are so large.

Ravenswood on this one. These RWs often get picked out of groups as hopeful blue lagoons.

I know, I saw the earlier photo and thought, "this doesn't look like the marble I thought was a strawberry shortcake". And these other photos now very much look like a SSC. I don't see how it's the same marble, the brown is gone in the recent photos. If it is, it sure does establish a great example of how important it is for a photo to properly represent the marble when asking for ID.

OP marble is a JABO. Maybe both here are.

Nice Ric, you have a nice assortment of the types! Nice marbles Melissa
