  1. It's Akro & it looks like a snake to me, not much opalescence, the base glass is more clear transparent IMO. A very highly rated seller, been around for a while, over 10,000 sales and still a 100% rating, what they're asking for the mib is about the limit IMO, and that's wanting it.
  2. The third (bottom) looks like Alley IMO, no ideas on the (#2) blue one ??
  3. Different runs, different packaging & a little different looking than the subsequent run but it's a firefighter IMO, go to the link and click on the little individual pictures, there's one that looks just like yours. Here's one in different packaging I clicked on from the link, different name but looks like yours, still a Vacor Firefighter ::
  4. x2, my guess would be Champion on this one also
  5. LINK :: https://www.billes-en-tete.com/detail.php?id=236
  6. x3, seeing Pelt here also
  7. Reminds me of a newer Vacor ??
  8. Glass coefficient, that's the word I was lookin for and the reason for the fractures (Akro superman, Akro indian Blanket) and a few others all have a similar problem because of the coefficient (incompatibility) of two different types of glass used to make them that cool @ different rates causing the fracturing so common to the type. I think all my Alley supers I have @ least one fracture except maybe one ?? The Akro Supers that I kept are about 50/50 and none of the blankets I have exhibit any fracturing ( not the first either) I had to pick a lot of cherries to get some that weren't split.
  9. Onionskin's have an underlying skin (Thus the name "Onionskin") usually of yellow or white w/ any number of colored bands stretched over it. Joseph coats are minus the skin and generally have a window between the colored ribbons to the transparent interior of the marble. (I should note there are always exceptions as in the case of any marble) ONIONSKIN W/ A YELLOW SKIN :: ONIONSKIN W/ A WHITE SKIN :: JOSEPH COATS :: Beach Ball type Coat : Orange Joseph Coat (Backlit so you can see the windows between the ribbons) And a couple shots of the same marble under normal lighting :
  10. Last year !! Just enough for dinner Me and my family bought for local & export 18 varieties of wild & exotic gourmet mushrooms,Chanterelles were one of our mainstays.
  11. No Leighton, no transitional, both 100% machine made
