  1. I've found similar swirls before but this one feels different. The glass seems to a better quality. It measures 21/32. Is it possible to ID a marble by the feel of the glass?
  2. Measures 19/32. Does anyone know who made this one?
  3. Thanks Steph! I googled Leighton and found some very similar examples. Looks like you nailed it. Thank again!
  4. I know that Superman colors have been popular for many years. The fractures make me think this is a lesser quality glass and newer. Measures 27/32.
  5. Measures 21/32. Is this an antique or something newer?
  6. 4 more that I currently have grouped with the Jabo Classics. Did I get it right?
  7. Thanks guys. Spent some time looking at Jabo Classics and found a few that look very similar. Putting with the Jabos. Thanks again!
  8. Sorry for the poor picture quality. iPhone struggles with focus sometimes. The black background helps. Silver oxblood?
  9. 21/32. I guessing Akro. Thoughts?
  10. Nice. Thanks for sharing Steph.
  11. Thanks Ron. Great information as always!
  12. Thanks Steph. I never would have gotten that one.
  13. This one measures 5/8. Base is an opaque bluish gray.
  14. I think I have an old German handmade. It's a pee wee, 15/32. Looks to have a pontil on either pole. It's rough and probably bound for the glass heap, but I'm curious about the age, maker, etc.
  15. A poor choice of words on my part Ron. I didn't know for sure, that's why I posted. The first set of photos was pretty bad so I posted a second set. I've only been doing this for about 8 months now and as soon as there is a marble show that is less than a day's drive away I plan on attending so that I can see examples of collectible marbles with my own eyes. In the meantime I must rely on books and online resources. My intent was to learn, not offend so if I offended anyone I'm sorry. I will put it in the "unidentified" for now. Thanks for taking time to respond Ron. Every time hear from you I learn something and for that I am truly grateful. Thanks again.
  16. It's a very pretty marble nonetheless! Thanks everyone. I truly appreciate the help!
  17. It's a cork. That's about the only marble I can ID with 100% certainty.... 99% certainty?...OK, very well, 90% on a good day😀. Seriously though, I'm very confident it's a corkscrew. Kind of a lazy cork but a corkscrew nonetheless. Here are a few more photos against a white background with the camera not so close. The first one gives the best perspective. Yellow with a green spiral. The green is luminescent which is the exact opposite of what read on the Marble Alan site. Anyway, I'm thinking Lemonade. If I've I'm wrong though, I am wrong. Y'all have looked at many marbles than I have. I just didn't want my crummy photos to shape your opinion. Please let me know what you think. Thanks again!
  18. I'm going out on a limb here and say this is an Alley! First one I've found though that's this shade of green. Reminds me on a Granny Smith apple. Measures 5/8. Something special or just a common?
  19. I'm guessing Vitro but I wouldn't be surprised if it's Akro. 5/8.
