  1. Vitro Conqueror. A victory is crystal clear glass with a colored patch. Pictured below:
  2. Antifreeze green glower a fun striped opaque
  3. Good call Josh, they did make CRs in this color combo, I didn't pay attention to the marbles to see who made them. The CRs also came in 7/8", I have a few, but that is close enough to 13/16"ish that it might be what you meant by "ish" lol
  4. Looks like an orange slag. Maybe CAC with sparse white?
  5. I agree, leaning slightly Ravenswood by the second picture.
  6. Yeah that's no serpent in the OP. You can see vitro in it from the one view given.
  7. Yes there are small ones. I saw a bag of 100 of them in this color combo a couple years ago at a show in 5/8". Elizebath Kempski had them.
  8. I lean Ravenswood. Fine steel wool works great to remove spots like that.
  9. It's pinned at the top of the ID forum at AAM https://www.allaboutmarbles.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=3490 I don't see it pictured there though.
  10. Vitro and Japanese. Cool how the Japanese one's ribbons are so ghostly.
  11. Nice stuff being posted. Killer threepeat marble Chad, and same with that metallic Alley Ric! Dave, love the dug Alley and Heaton stuff. Cool drizzle. Speaking of Abalone, this is my most epic abalone Heaton.
  12. I don't like to sell. I've sold a few lots of dirty Heatons in order to let some out for other collectors but money has a way of turning into nothing real fast. A bill paid for one month, or a marble I can enjoy for years... I'll take the marble unless things get real tight. I do trade now and then, and I try to make the recipient of the trade come out on top. I can get rid of a few like that. Selling them is hard but giving them to someone who really is enthusiastic is easier. As far as displaying, I don't have many on display. Never got the time to find or build display cabinets. It would be an undertaking. One day maybe, but life is so busy. Got some jars and cullet out, but I can bring out and show things easily.
  13. I knew that about Kokomo using the Peltier machine, but the machine doesn't make any pattern or design or leave any signature behind, it just makes the glass round. Brian Graham makes marbles on the Peltier Miller machine but the patterns are nothing like any Peltier. It's all in the feed setup from the tank and shears. Once it hits the machine it's already got the pattern it's going to have. I would say the maker of that marble ^ had the same or very similar tank and glass feed setup as Peltier. I only bring this up because of so many new recent collectors who can quickly get the wrong idea.
  14. How can you tell what machine they were made on? Just curious.
  15. A group of marbles that I believe were the contents of a box or bag, all found together and all mint and matching. Shows one way flinties might have been purchased back then. And I have a couple HTF colors but no pics. Purple being the main one. I'll see if I can get it out and get some pics. It is dull with surface wear though.
