Me too.

Vacor for sure on #1, Veiligglas for the second purple one. Nice big one akroorka!

Likely Champion IMO.

I agree, Pelt rainbo in an uncommon color for the first, second I lean more Cairo but Heaton and Cairo can be very similar. Definitely machine made. And unknown transparent WV swirl for the last.

To me the Jacksons have a strandy fluffy quality to the ribbon that the RW lacks. And a bit sloppier stream makeup.

Funny thing is, since I mentioned this bug, it hasn't done it again even once.

I think the first one is similar to some Alleys but the cuts look Akro. I'd probably have it with Akros. Chris, I think your handful is Akros for the most part but the one that jumps out as probably Alley is the one near the tip of your pinky finger.

Agreed on Alley. Pennsboro.

I'm in for Ravenswood.

Sistersville Alley or early Pennsboro (batch glass marble) was my thought as well FWIW. Would love to find a good one like it.

Well, it's not unfinished work. It's the same content I had already entered and has been replied to and likes added to it and all. I come back to say thanks or whatever and it puts the whole post back in my text area and I have to delete it all. It hasn't done it to me today though. Sometimes it does it for every post, sometimes it doesn't do it at all. Maybe it's not doing it today because I closed the page and re-opened it.

I'm having this issue when after I have replied to a post once, the next time I try to reply, the text box automatically fills with the content from my previous reply. So if my previous reply was a few sentences and a couple photos, the next time I try to reply I have to delete all that content, including the photos, from the text box and type in my new reply. It doesn't put it in quotes or anything, it just puts it all in the reply box as if I retyped it all over again. Does anyone else have that issue?

Vacor 100% for me.

I forgot about this thread. Here are more pics to build onto what's here. Alleys

Here are some more Heaton pics. Oysters with oyster shell to better demonstrate how they got their name. A sweet potato that was made during the striking color change and has both blue and green in the ribbon. The progression of colors seen from a regular Robin Egg marble to the Rotten Robin marble, and lastly a handful of a premium unnamed Heaton type.

Thank you, some more. All these in this group were dug at Pennsboro.

One of my favorite marbles. Great glass, overall composition, and condition.

Maybe take a pic of them both side by side to show the difference. I'm confident on the op marble being Vacor even if the base glass has a green tint. Might not be the patriot type but I see Vacor strongly in the ribbon construction and glass.

I take it as some green contaminate got in it. A chunk fell off the side of the tank or whatever. Or it might be the start or end of a run before the green started coming out or after it ended. We will probably never know.

Very hard to say with little to no traits to go by. Probably considered a game marble.

I see Akro.

Yes, usually called a superman. This type is from St. Mary's and usually fractured. There is also one from Sistersville that is much harder to find.

Wait... those are pics of the same marble? i thought the second group was to show the difference between a Pelt and the OP. The later pic is definitely a Pelt. I can't find a similarity in the pattern, I think they are two different marbles.... ??? *think*

Called a vacor Liberty

Some more Alleys to look through
