    Akro?

    I'm still shakin my head, I still don't see Akro, but I am stumped !!
  2. HAPPY AKRO FRIDAY EVERYONE !!! Akro facts : With acknowledgement, thanks and credit for information given to; { MCSA } MARBLE COLLECTORS SOCIETY OF AMERICA A short description of Akro Agate Oxblood marbles "Happy Akro Friday Again" a fitting place for this post, so I figured, why not !! A pic repost but some of my favorite Akros.
  3. I do believe we all suffer from the same dilemma Tommy.

    Akro?

    I am a bit on the confused side myself ?? Maybe a newer messed up Vacor ?? just a guess !! A head scratcher for sure.
  5. The turquoise blue base says it was probably supposed to be a "superboy, spiderman" ... something along that line, but yes I'm a sucker for one offs, even if everyone told me not to collect them I still do. "A great keeper pelt in my book "
  6. Yes a wire pull !! "looks like Veiligglas" what size is it if you don't mind, many of the Veiligglas were larger next to 15/16ths, but the did make some smaller ones.
  7. I see a couple limeade oxbloods in the mix "Nice Job, all killer mibs Tommy !! The grant type boards are a great way to display, I have several, unfortunately half of them are on the wall, space is at a premium around here.
  8. Aquamilk !! Well guess I can say I was 3 for five, never collected Vitro I do have quite a few, kept for the wet condition, incidental catches from buying lots. Well check one more off the old learning curve "Thanks Ric "
  9. Whoop's !! Sorry bout that Ric !! Looking at the same page you where, the ad next to the bottom it says "glass spangles" fancy designs in colored threads, large as a hens egg ?? got any ideas, are these latticinio with colored threads or what ?? The price seems to be more in the pink salesman's catalog for the same year?? must be the profit for the salesman ??
  10. Deeeeliciouse !!! Akro for lunch, table of 8
  11. Hello Ron, How many "non Heaton" mibs are you finding Ron ? I believe I have around 6 - 8 % ratio that I can't call Heaton, the few cats that are obvious Bogard, I think I have 2 of them both green, but a bunch of the common white base just don't look Heaton to me. Some pics later, just wondering on your percentage thus far ?? Chad G.
  12. x 2 pelt agreed, strange is the word
  13. "Welcome Tommy" a great place to be. Nice pic !!
  14. Reading the box Ric I guess it could contain any myriad of things, confusing to say the least. Say's Onyx but the only onyx I ever seen sparkle is one with fractures all over it, personally I believe Av. the production dates line up perfectly with the miller type pelts in question. There is a reason why surfers, lagoons, etc. are a rare mib & there is no known packaging., I believe a transitional between the miller av. types and NLR, to much of a coincidence for me. Most of the time those boxes contained as labeled but there are cases of a mix of types contained in them, Just speculation again on my behalf.
  15. I'm not that great on Vitro I.D. Ric, I have several just like that, are those called aquamarine ?? or is the base a more off white than I'm seeing ??
  16. Me either !! Look at my "first response" Ron, I I.D. them as Jabo, just talking about the buttermilk type of base glass, those are obvious Jabo's. A small post easy to miss.
  17. I got no chips, clueless on this one !! Does look a bit Pennsboro though, I believe you're onto something Steph.
  18. Buttermilks bring in the $$ to, a very beautiful Vitro. "You're welcome"
  19. Akro facts : With acknowledgement, thanks and credit for information given to { MCSA } MARBLE COLLECTORS SOCIETY OF AMARICA THE AKRO AGATE COMPANY, A SHORT HISTORY : HAPPY, ALMOST , AKRO FRIDAY

    MK?

    Akro patch yes but it doesn't look like an ade base to me, looks more like the ace base, can you hit it with the uv" 💡"and see if it glows please Bruce ?? Don't give up on identifying, I've seen you right several times also, believe me I've been wrong plenty, just like everyone else. Just like I may be wrong this time, sometimes you just can't tell from "📷" pics !! Chad G.
