  1. Happy to help you out Dave! Glad to see you sticking with it!

    Cairo?

    The only one in that group I would call JABO is the green/orange one, 4th in the top row.
  3. I'd go master, then two JABOs or Vacors. I can't zoom in and get enough clarity to be certain.
  4. I'd stick with Master for the first, the second is a Vacor swirl. Notice it's not the same in any way other than color when compared to the MK bumblebees. Look at the construction and you can see the difference between a patch type marble and a swirl. MK wasn't in the swirl business. Last one also looks like a Vacor. Vacor makes both swirls and patches and other types too.
  5. From these pics I'd call the first one Ravenswood. Then you have a brick normally attributed to Akro, and a red/white Alley, and the dark one looks like probably a Ravenswood of some sort, nice well lit clear pics of it and the first marble would be nice, the first is a good marble.
  6. Yes, that is a known Kokomo type. Here's' one
  7. First one yes, second one no.
  8. Looks like a transitional.
  9. The makers had sections the marbles rolled down. If the marble fell between the 1/2" track, it was a 1/2" or maybe reject, if it fell through the 5/8" track, it was a 5/8" marble even though it might have been a bit less. If it didn't, it would go to the 11/16 or 3/4" slot, whichever they had set up, and it would fall through it and be called that size. A .66 marble would have gone to the 11/16" or 3/4" track most likely. Some makers even used the ought system, like double ought (00), and so on. They weren't so precise as we are now with these calipers.

    Mica ?

    Good example to compare with Chad. I agree, th OP doesn't look like mica.
  11. If 5/8", I think possibly SMM A&B run for the first one. if 7/8" or more, then JABO. I think a pulled wonky Pelt for the second.
  12. Agreed, pic #2 gave it away, Akro.
  13. A nice example IMO, white or not. The dark green heavy coverage makes it better than many in my eyes. The smaller size is cool too, I think that in-between size might be harder to find than the 5/8" versions.

    Opinions

    I would think Akro would be the most likely maker because of the seams, the pinkish streak, and the size all combined. Just a best guess.
  15. They have no name that I know of. They've been called rainbos but I think they are NLRs personally. I really like them.
  16. Yes you were. The second one not being an easy one to ID, so good job!
