I feel like this one probably is a popeye, but the red is wispy, not the white. And here is another like the red/yellow one I posted earlier. Some clear striations in the white, but not enough to satisfy the popeye criteria.

I don't really know. The white has some striation with translucence, but it probably wasn't intended to be a popeye. I have another I will take a pic of that I think is a popeye but some will say not.

I'll get more pics in a little bit!

There is a never ending supply of color combos it seems. Has anyone seen one like this before? The blue is not like any I remember seeing in pelt's pallette and then some yellow tracing the white too! I like it. I thought I had more than one pic on file... I guess they didn't transfer.

It's a little guy at 9/16. Chocolate with white and custard colors.

If they absolutely must be vintage, I would guess vitro on the left and akro messed up cork, or weird ppp on right. More pics might change my mind.

Oh wow.

Getting Jabo vibes.

I agree with Jabo.

Duh... (smacking myself in the forehead).... I kept on focusing on the other end where that cut line is and completely overlooked the fact that the brown ribbon doesn't end until it meets back at that cut again. Okay, so it's obviously not a pelt. What could it be?

I've been hanging on to this marble for a while, not able to figure out what it is. I think some folks on an ID forum told me it wasn't a few years ago, but I want another opinion. If it is a pelt, what is it called? Too bad it's beat up. ~21/32"

Vacor (don't know the name) on right versus Alley blue sky or skies on left.

Dang, nice haul!!!

Thanks Chuck! That's a cool name for a marble!

The NLR reference was about the tan and red marble outside the bag in the first pic, down by the onionskin. Still wondering what it's called if it has a name.

That sure looks like a match there!

Nice!

SWEET!

I agree with old, but who made it? The glass looks like champion or maybe alley? Tough one to ID.

Nice! I don't think I could bring myself to open the bag, but if I did, I think I'd lift the paper label up as far as I could and use a razor blade to cut a careful small slit just big enough to pop out the marble under the paper so you can't see it without lifting the label. I don't know what the tan and red NLR is called, burnt zebra sounds good to me. Chuck G. (The other Chuck... the Pelt guru) knows, I'm sure!

Peltier NLR on left versus Rainbo on right:

Nice, I didn't know vacor made some that close!

You're right, in hand it would be more obvious. The brown/red ribbon is actually transparent in that marble. The white base glass makes it look a lot like the ones on the left in the picture. That marble is an Alley from Pennsboro.

Oxblood is something newbies have a hard time grasping it seems, so this might help in that respect, or it might muddy the water more ... but these are oxblood on the left, not oxblood on the right. I tried to pick some that are not oxblood, but commonly are confused with oxblood because of the color. Some of the oxbloods on the left are very thick heavy oxblood, and some are thin.
