  1. Guess this is what they mean when they say common, "WoW"
  2. My "Sundays Best" Akro Milky Oxblood Two views of the same marble. The oxblood doesn't corkscrew but instead meanders all over the marble.

    Pelt?

    I see Vitro in yours and Pelt Rainbo in Joeps !!
  4. "Welcome to Marble Connection Erik" Yes !! recognize ya from AAM plus I contacted you concerning marble purchases a while back. I'm from Rainier Oregon originally and now just across the bridge in Longview WA. so were only about 35 mins apart. Again "welcome" marble Brother !! Chad G. (AKA PELTmaster)
  5. I see Master !! Thanx for the outside pix
  6. Yes, # 8 looks like another Veiligglas pull.
  7. I see a Peltier, possibly a "ruby bee, depending on if it contains aventurine or not, possibly some good Akros too. "Condition" is always # 1 I see a lot of ware, fleabites, missing glass, hits etc. in fact I can't see any without ware. To get a more accurate look you'll have to get closer and take multiple views of the same marble to check condition and make an accurate I.D. One good marble can pay for the entire group "or not" Only one way to tell. No way to get any kind of idea from your pix, I wish it was quicker for ya !! Suspected "Peltier NLR Ruby Bee"
  8. I visited Bing news today like every morning and it was refreshing to see people using a form of the old "Ballot marble" system again. A new twist on a very old idea !! A use for marbles going back well over a hundred years. LINK : https://www.sabcnews.com/sabcnews/gambians-vote-for-president-using-marbles-in-key-test-for-stability/
  9. Lactose intolerant, wish I could, I have to eat cereal with Almond Milk.
  10. Ya did get some more Veiligglas, I didn't spot it when you posted in new finds, I wish they would have had some more opaque Veiligglas swirls for ya !!
  11. "Slag & Swirl Saturday" Some of my favorite Jabo Oxblood Swirls, hard to settle on just one, so !!
  12. Got a new Red, White & Blue Akro a few weeks back and forgot to post it here !! GOD Bless the U. S.A.
  13. Some Akro corks w, the exact same color scheme as the Alley, a bit confusing.
  14. I agree, looks like Vacor to me also, maybe Imperial but leaning more to Vacor.
  15. Hah !! I knew it man .... .... I could smell the fruity chemical freshness from here !!
  16. That sounds good to me !! That or fruity pebbles, got a sweet tooth problem, or should I say a sweet "toothless" problem .... .... Sometimes I feel like the "Cookie Monster" lives in my head !! Way to get on it Brother !!
  17. "Happy Akro Friday" Two views of the same marble, an Akro Silver Oxblood, first under lighting inside and then one under natural Sunlight.
  18. Definitely machine made, from seeing the one end, we just had a discussion about sizes of Masters so "guessing" maybe Master ?? But could be foreign as well since both ends appear to end in a point.
  19. I got my red cloud in a lot, if Paula won that box a bit back she will have 5, maybe she'll part w, one ?? Ah !! by the way, nice score on the mib Brother, a HTF color combo for sure, brown is pretty common but the pink you don't see everyday, not even every other day !!
  20. "Happy Thüringen Thursday" A .80" av. Joseph Coat, my favorite type of Handmade, the two unfinished pontils help date it approximately to the late Victorian era i.e. 1880 - 1910 or there about's, the older ones usually exhibit a faceted pontil and a melted pigtail or unfinished on the other end. This one not in my hands yet but it's on the way, these larger Coats have become VHTF, especially with av. & in any kind of mint shape.
