  1. Didn't akro call them onyx? I have seen tri-onyx when referring to a popeye
  2. I'm in! I get in Thursday too
  3. Buster bars from dairy queen. That is all.
  4. Is the white brushed on the surface or is it into the glass at all? I feel like vitro is a possibility
  5. Thank you. I was thinking akro from the start but I just wanted to be sure
  6. The only reason I don't automatically say akro is the 9 and tail. Thiughts?

    Akro Ades

    Ric - I would agree with you, but I may put the blue one with my prize names. Steph - those look like ades to me. I have never seen blue ones like those. All the ones I have seen are more like moss agates or are aces

    Akro Ades

    From all I have read, there are lemonades, limeades, orangeades,cherryades, and carnelians. Ades must have a milky off white glass and filaments of white, plus another color corked or swirled (very similar definition in several books). I haven't seen blue ones with the white filaments, so those may be moss agates or aces
  11. I believe akro marketed the ades under the name "imperials" (AMMM page 23) and are specifically corkscrews while moss agates where described as patch type Marbles in akro literature
  12. On the left, an ade. On the right, an ace.
  13. I am sticking with an "ade" Hybrid. My understanding is that an ace would be a cloudy, translucent base, an ade would be a cloudy translucent base with a white and another color(s) swirled/corked (does it have to be uv?), and a most agate with a cloudy translucent base.

    Un-Cork?

    I have heard those called lazy corks too
  15. Looks like a limeade/lemonade hybrid or something closer to that
  16. It doesn't look as blended in hand, but I definitely trust your judgement. Would you say alley then?
  17. I actually found a pic on joes marbles that matched pretty closely, it was listed as cachttp://joemarbles.com/1Marble%20Picture%20Pages/07Christensen/Christensen%20002/1%20Christensen%20Large%20Pages/Christensen%20Agate%202-13.htm
  18. Here in San Diego they are working on a massive desalination plant
  19. Probably why it was inside out!lol
  20. So I got this plain bag filled with little cloth bags with this lot, but not at the same part of the estate sale. It looked like this on both sides: But as I emptied the bag, I noticed something printed inside. I turned it inside out to this :-)
  21. Need some help with these. If any other pics are needed, I will be happy to take some more.
  22. Here are 3 pelt rainbo peewees, 2 are 13/32" and the "big" one is 7/16"
  23. For me, a reserve makes me feel like there is no chance of getting a deal, and makes me way less interested
