  1. Could ya post a couple more views Bruce ??
  2. I had to post this one, "Akroliciouse" Definitely Akro & the clear base glass $ white whispy strands are Popeye qualifiers added to the definite Popeye colors.
  3. Another link from right here & some pix Steph submitted showing the difference between a regular popeye & a patch, also for Rick a red white & blue example, I believe I've seen every color patch including some so called (Hybrids) LINK : https://marbleconnection.com/topic/24312-difference-between-akro-patches-and-vitro-popeyes/
  4. Same as a popeye except in patch form, i.e. no rotation around the marble/ Color patch goes straight from pole to pole without any rotation or variation. I think if you go to the link they are explained there also, along with other Akro patches. This group of pix courtesy of AAM This one is a killer
  5. I guess I should post a pic of me beside the fleeing emoticon showing the resemblance !!
  6. Link to the history & description, courtesy of and with permission from the ( Marble Collectors Society of America) MCSA LINK : https://www.marblecollecting.com/marble-reference/online-marble-id-guide/akro-agate-co/ This link also has the definitions of every bother marble, I would have tapped it out but I type with one finger & In fat finger the keys half the time & spend a good third of my time fixing my spelling. I hope this helps you out Gina !!
  7. Yes !! gone, nothing but broken registry showing here as well, a repost would be great !!
  8. See you soon Gina, you'll be fine
  9. I'm still laughing !! maybe at myself ??
  10. A VISIT FROM THE LOCAL MARBLE POLICE Just one more I.D. wrong & you've had it !! (Welcome To My Nightmare)
  11. Wish I was your neighbor round about harvest time!!
  12. Nice mibs & pix Joep !! I really like em backlit by the sun !!
  13. This one, just what I call them, I know they have a more correct name but it escapes me ?? Guess I should call it a "double lily planter" because that is what I believe the flower to be, so the reason for the one below being called a lily vase.
  14. The black specs in the marble are "probably" from dirty rollers or sometime during production, or maybe gas bubbles that rose to the surface when the glass was still hot & collapsed creating a dimple that got filled with debris ??
  15. The large Akro bin planter is killer, Bah it's all killer !! Imperial makes a cornucopia that's almost exactly like the akro, the only difference is a little variance in the foot & the stamp on the bottom. This ones Imperial !! No shots of the Akro, I'll try and salvage one out of a group shot real quick I got lucky & managed one with the sticker still in it, I just checked the bottom & it has the 1951 Imperial stamp on it, same place as the Akro stamp. There are 3 Akro toothpicks & the same red Imperial in this shot, I'll take some better side by side and post them later

  17. x 2, Looks like a Christensen (CAC) slag "to me" ??
  18. Here's "Stephen Bahrs" YouTube marble I.D. video's link for ya, just click below : LINK : https://www.youtube.com/c/StephenBahr/videos
  19. Oop !! My bad Gina, sorry bout that one, the 100 count went right over my head 😖 "Thanks' for the reminder Steph"
  20. Peltier Rainbo $ 1.00, top's !! No way on the $18.00. Yes it is a vintage marble but fairly common, even in mint shape.
  21. " HAPPY AKRO FRIDAY" I already posted some of these on the score but they are Akro, so by the skin of my teeth I remembered Some of the Akro Ware I got an excellent deal on.
  22. 'Thanks for the info Scott, I have copied it and the YouTube link I will pass it on. Again "Thank You very much"
