"Happy Akro Friday" I know I've posted this marble before but this time an explanation of exactly where it came from & what it is. I.D. as an Akro French Drain marble, w/ an olive colored base glass and the familiar Akro construction including a nice patch of oxblood. Most of the French drain marbles were on the large size, this is a smaller one at nearly 11/16ths". For being found or "dug" this marble is in immaculate shape.

Some type of transitional slag, my brain is on idle right now

Is it purple & white Rick ??

Nice mib Tommy, great size !! Gentle now, watch or unbenounced to you "flaking"

O.P. is a Pelt Rainbo to me, no special name I've heard of !! Heard of "Alley Halloween" and Bogard "Halloween cats" anything beyond that is new to me

I have actually looked for a "pink" Bennie but the few I ran into were beat up !!

Was it Fess ?? Or maybe this is the wrong type of "Pelt" .... I've looked and don't see a marble bag ?????????? Some facsimiles of our past leaders

x2, agree w/ Ric, both manufacture (box) names, not my pix but some nice sets !! Bill (mibcapper) has a really nice set of Cerise he'll hopefully post ??

These are the only "clay type" ones I really saved, guessing the Black Bennington would be the hardest to acquire then maybe the Jaspar in the back ?? Not all that knowledgeable on them they just came in lots !! I have some glazed painted helix and bullseye Chinas "somewhere"

You're welcome Ric

"Estimated" production date for this one somewhere between 1870-1910, EOD Josephs Coat, two unfinished pontils, no faceting : Yes, so called English colors as most of the colors are noticeably brighter than their faceted 1850-1870 predecessors. Called English because most of them manufactured during this time were made in Germany for the "English" game board market, as such the larger Coats for this time (end of the late Victorian era) have become very hard to come by, i.e., @ over or near 1". Size is 1 & 3/16ths" A shot of the two unfinished pontils

"Joseph Coat"

A lucky find Tommy, even in the shape it is a very desirable Akro What is the size on yours ??

Peltier NLR Rebel, some would call in an "Orange Rebel " because of the orange ribbons.

I kept all my insulators as well William, ya never know ??

A hair over 5/8ths"

"Happy West Virginia Wednesday" I.D. as Ravenswood after much speculation !! All pix the same mib.

Here's one of the few I have I.D. as coming from the "Alley Corn Cobb" machine by Ron. A corkscrew pattern. two large alleys on each end, I have some like yours I also use for marble display. I bought the same ones you have before I found the Alley type. A pic showing both the same insulator you have w/ some Jabos in it and the Alley insulator on the Left. Uh Oh !! I used up my West Va. Wednesday pics .....

You got my vote !!

Yes Sir

x2, Heaton here also

Nice one Bill ....

The heavy lashes in the first pic are a bit confusing ?? The rest of the mibs configuration does remind me of MK though?? A nice looking Blended Ric, I can see why you saved it !!
