Akro75 replied to bumblebee's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
I've had horrible luck finding anything in the wild for years, but today had a chance to check out 2 local antique stores I haven't been to in forever. Back in the 90' these were plentiful....now I'm just happy to see something other than cat eyes, confetti etc...and being able to cherry pick for $1 a marble...score!
-
I have one similar, though it is 1"...
-
1 and 4 Alleys, 2nd one toss up? ...3rd looking like CAC...nice lookn marbles...
-
Master 1st one, , Vitro I'm thinking second one,, and 3rd leaning CAC, but not 100%
-
Killer!
-
the second one always had me wondering! They should have purposely made the marble like that, it looks nice.. Thanks for the help!
-
Is that a translucent glass patch on the top of #2? If so I would put in my vitro groupings, otherwise pelt imho.
-
Mixed thoughts on both of these, but some type of transitional I am thinking... the red and white one colors are completely opaque, nice thick creamy white glass has me thinking early CAC? The black/bluish is transparent based glass, bluish swirls under light,...any thoughts? Thanks!
-
Nice, Leaning CAC...
-
Yea, agree on the Akro colors, like a mixup between between a tri color patch and cork...pretty cool marble.
-
Love that color combo...looks great. Does look like an Akro corkscrew gone wild...and the colors are typical for Akro as well.
-
These i have so far , enjoy , do you see a special ones among these ?

Lookn good....love the blue glass German with yellow. -
Oh....5/8"..
-
Organizing the machine mades...CAC or Alley, or does it even matter? Lol...I'm leaning Alley...
-
I'm thinking MK first one, Akro 2nd....1st one so many colors for the same marble.
-
I still call em bloodies, and I still keep them grouped separately from the other Pelts..as long as that red bleeds in that glass.
-
Ok, so here are a few more pics, also at the seam where the ribbons meet their is a crease...it's almost like the ribbons were meant to be north and south...like a MK?
-
Purple one kinda stumped...green leaning toward Akro or Master.
-
Yea, once backlit, def. Looks slag like, but the amount of opaque white and non transparent brownish swirls still has me guessing.
-
This is backlit....purple transparent, white opaque.
-
I'm thinking Akro, Alley or Ravenswood...just not sure.
-
the last pic has a nice photo of the seam, opaque glass, just barely translucent purple brownish layered glass...what appear to be lashes, and measures just under 3/4"...so I can't pin this one down..any help would be great!
-
Their is a hint of pink in the wv swirl....the other 2 have stumped me for years..., I've never seen such exact and distinct layering of like colors on a Master, but I am still leaning that way.
-
I think the brownish/tannish is Ravenswood...the other 2... colors are interesting for a Master? Maybe Akro, since no 'u' or 'v' at poles. What do you think.
