That's what I was thinking & is probably why, but the trademark was registered to Akro by patent so thy all should be the same ?? Ah well just like the backwards S in U S A on about a third of the Akro pieces I have ?? I didn't even notice it William till I seen your pics & went to take pics of mine.

"Yes" definitely green tinted, good eye man !!

A few more pix of last weeks score !! I forgot I also got some Murano Glass made in Italy with some nice chunky gold lutz in it. These little ashtrays are all stamped ITALY on the bottom & I have another yellow one identical to these four that I researched so I know they are real. I fill all this stuff with marbles to save space & it also makes for a pretty good display.

I noticed something on the Akro stamps, on the ribbed cups the crow is flying to the left & on all the other pieces he's flying to the right. Ribbed Cup mark Octagonal Bowl & every other piece Traditionally the crow flies to the right ?? Just something I noticed !! Maybe someone knows the reason behind the change ??

x 2, Agree with Steph, 100% Jabo

Best deal I've had in quite some time. I'll post some more closeups tomorrow, just got home & am beat !! See you all tomorrow

Yeah Buddy, you got a good one !!

Ok !! I finally downloaded the pics. I scored this Akro Ware last week, gave a bit over $2.00 for each piece, $45.00 for 22 pieces, a good deal for once, no chips or cracks, all in good shape. So a combo, best score and Akro product !!

These are called "Concentric Ribbed" I have a set of white ones just like yours with a turquoise ribbed pitcher./ I noticed the crow logo on yours & mine as well are very detailed, much more so than other pieces of Akro ware. Same # 12 highly visible on mine to, wish I could get my hands on or reference guide to the meaning of each number ?? I know there are a couple complete guides to Akro ware & other Akro products, both by Roger & Claudia Hardy, maybe I'll go ahead & get them ?? You may recognize the first names ?? The VVHTF "Jolly Roger" giant cork & the "Claudia" both Akro marbles named after them. STORE LINK : https://www.ebay.com/str/akroagatearsenal?_trksid=p2047675.l2563

Nice Akro !! I scored about 23 pieces this week, best score in a long time, will be posting them later tonight. Nice bunch of glass William !! Yes the owl is 100 % Imperial (1951), my nieces favorite animal. You're gonna need that other display "Soon" @ this rate.

Looks like a serpent to me, they made several different runs of them, some even come close to Pelts, many are fooled. An older run "Vacor Serpentina" ( Serpent) to me. x 2 I agree with Josh.

Agree with Josh, no pelts, Japanese

Something is lurking inside , some kind of catseye ?

"I" agree with "Pelt Rainbo" on this one also, just a little messed up that's all. Marbles aren't exacting as you know, you can come up with almost anything, everything on this marble points "me" toward it being a Pelt Rainbo.

"Yes" the "Peltier John Deere" marble is backwards of the actual tractor, the "Girl scout" matches the tractor. Click on the LINK below for Pelt I.D.'s LINK : https://www.peltiermarbles.info/nlrs

"Yes" I believe I remember seeing a few in the pics you had Joep ??

Man what a blast from the past Craig. Being a kid sure was great. Talk about the meaning of "no worries" thanks for the "post" 🤣

All 3 swirls in my opinion, no slags
