  1. Thank you, Stephen- Yes, I think they are tank washes, even though it is not written on the card. I have other tank washes, received from Ron (Ron Shepherd)
  2. Fantastic, Chad! 💪 Especially the one on the right
  3. Happy that you appreciated it! Yes, it is very crowded and narrow
  4. The cutting line is the point where the machine's shears or scissors that produce the marbles cut the flow of glass as it falls before landing on the rollers to round it, making it spherical. When the colors overlap (they do not mix in the glass), they are noticeable, or give the impression of seeing more colors The mark in this image, above, is just an imperfection in the construction Below cutting line, wide, by Akro - Beautiful marble!
  5. I can even see six, where there are the shades. Even if they are just shades or overlapping colors, they give a different color tone.
  6. Thanks, great link! Here he explains the difference between a "superman," "superboy," "spiderman," and so on... I have never had difficulty distinguishing a Superman from a Superboy or Spider-Man, in marbles However, my question was a bit more complicated; I just wanted to know (obviously if possible, given this subtle context) the reason why a marble with orange-colored ribbons instead of red is called "super-boy" if the comic book Super-Boy is literally identical to Superman with the red coloration and NOT orange, like the superboy of marbles! The superboy is different from Superman only in having a younger-looking face... obviously I hope my question is understood, as I am using a translator In any case, thank you anyway, you are very kind!
  7. Yes, certainly. We collectors have given these names to some marbles.
  8. The one on the left is the original. It looks like a bouncy rubber ball... awesome!
  9. Al, it seems that you see him the same way I do. Super-boy's red is not yet fully ripe and is orange, so it is still young, hence the name 'boy'
  10. Happy New Year Steph! Listen to the song... sempre-bella-da-riascoltare-musica - COMPRESSO-.mp4
