Nice prizes Bruce, I'm having camera difficulty, can't post a thing, drats right when I need it.

Another one on the way, a nice old fashioned reb plus an alley flame and pelt green feather ⏳ still, really ⌚ you've got to be kidding me !!

Well that didn't last long, Back home in a matter of hour's, Why must it rain now !!!!

I was always led to believe the one's w/ the black outline are 3 color specials, anything over 2 color's is a special not a prize name, small as the outline may be it's still a clear separation of one color encasing the other color and considered a special i.e. row( 1) blue, orange, black ) row( 2) red black and green ) of sarab's mib's, a small difference but never the less different. I welcome any new info, please let me know your opinion !! The one's I would consider prize names in the pic I posted are the ( blue & yellow ) ( black & yellow ) ( Black & white ) ( red & purple ) ( red & yellow ) ( orange & green ) all absent of any shading or outline between color's 2 color's only and what I consider a true prize name. I hope this help's me and Sara both w/ some clarification !!! Please help & submit your info. Thank you !! Chad G.

I'll try and get some shot's of just my prize name's, I think there's a double ingot blue w/ a white base around somewhere. I will see what I can find.

"Very nice mib's" the color combination's are unlimited, whatever combination you can imagine Akro, whether for mass production or a rare dug example made just about every color there is. " Happy Hunting " here is a repost of some of my fave's, most of the prize names I have are in a separate curio, there are a few mixed in here also, I like the onyx like the blue one on the upper (R) hand side, superman is also an old standby favorite of mine. I really like the red and black you have, another of my favorite color combinations, what am I sayin , I like em all, nice job Sara.

No problem, try to share what I know, just found out the true identity of the mib last week myself 😊
-
I know , believe me I know, Thanks Steph. ( I'm still not gonna stop lookin )

Outstanding pic's all around, great work every one I love veiligglas, I know this is an old post looked @ it many time's, I understand Winnie is gone now, a great loss to the marble community, My condolences to all who knew her, a very committed woman I understand. Wish I could get my hand's on some flames or a nice swirlin color blend, very hard to find now, all I have is the basic two color pull's, I'm not complaining they are still beauties to me. Here's a repost of my cleanest and best one. I mean man some of these mib's just blow me away.

Hot pink is just the color blend of some master's I have, I don't know about orange cloud, I learned I have a champion called a" red cloud" which I thought to be a furnace marble before I was set straight (see champion red cloud below) a relative of the champion hot wheel's family according to those in the know. The swirl's continue around, into and through the mib, that's what threw me off in the first place as far as the mistaken furnace mib identification. The hot pink colored master's are gone across the river, I did trade them to a friend for some German hand mades a couple year's ago. I gotta quit doin that !!

Ok it's time I hope this make's it all better !!!

Your a seein the same thing I am Bruce ??? Where only a few click's away !!

I told Steph I had some teeny tiny clearies, this is a pic of then in a small orange akro cup ( R ) side 1 1/2 " high, I have taken some individual pics of them and some other pee wee's to post later a few bennies, clay's and jaspers in the middle, Better color pics of the clearies are comin. The orange cups and the white pot are tiny Akro dishes 3/4 to 1 1/2 " high the mibs on the (r) in the orange cup are mostly 3/8 " and the ones in the white thumb pot (L) are pee-wee under 1/2 ", for scale the two Michelangelo's in front are 5/8ths " All of the cups and dishes seen in my display's are Akro children's china. If you have watched the old B & W little rascals shorts on T.V. much of the china Darla uses is old Akro children's china.

Don't feel like the lone ranger, I've been stumped for some time on this one, I'll post some different angle's. This marble is also highly uv. just adding to the mystery. The curve look's like a half done royal, I give. HEEEELLP !! Chad Gartner's Page.url

In the pic's of master's I posted I have some w/ pink, purple, a blend ?? Hopefully we all learn something new, I'm game That's why I'm here Also Have some huge 3/4 or better that appear as master, hang on I'll repost, here tell me what you think of the big brushed patch. I threw in the purple and pink one's, some of my seam's look pointy like the other and some don't, I'm curious about that ( just remeasured a hair over 3/4 " )brushed one on the top L 3rd and top R last pic. sarab mib definitely has a different looking base color for sure, I thought it was the camera but the same lavender color show's no matter the angle. I'm gonna dig around for those hot pink one's also, I might have trade for some hand mades not quite sure.

Look's allot like a master to me, but I do have some imperial's that fooled me, never the less a very nice marble. Couldn't sleep, good morning Steph 😴

I think this to be an old Akro hero ? Just guessing, I may be way off on this one, Kind of a weird design that's why I had kept it, what's your opinion on the I.D. ?? The heavy lashe's made me think Akro, obscure for sure. Chad Gartner's Page.url

I can't for the life of me understand where I'm getting the ring of dot's ?? 1 bulb, no flash ? the sun doesn't have the same effect ??? I give

Don't know where my mind was, I was on the phone and quoting you @ the same time. A really good excuse would be if the person on the phone was named Claudia ( not ) I only have a 1/2 track brain and can barely do 1 thing @ a time. " Claudia " Oh brother !! I don't even have the patch. Sorry about the bum post man.. I'll edit it and show the edit so no one get's a bum steer.

I'm trying to build mine back up but the av. and 1'' and over have gone through the roof, when you can find them. A very kind & thoughtful thing to do Steph, I'm sure it won't be going anywhere soon. Kool !!

Nice mib's Steph, I live not far from Anacortes, I'll have to do a little research myself, thanks for sharing and lettin the "cat out of the bag" By the look's of the pile there's definitely a lot of pic's in your very near future.

Agreed 100% correct on that one.
