I think that they are all "Prize-names". I hunted these for many years and they seem to hook up with my research. The second one usually has more purple involved but there is still some there. The third one has an Oxblood streak--kind weird for sure but very cool. The first one is just a killer example-luv the colors involved. Prize names were not a "Just" they were some of the finest made by Akro imho. Marble--On!!

Nice biggies here. I do not recall seeing them so well covered--Nice score! Marble--On!!

Wow that is a big one-- Imperial is not out of the question imho (a weak one). I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more-- Marble--On!!

Yes to confetti. The only marble company in the USA that tried these was Vitro--as far as I know. They (the vitro) are very rare and need a good length of history to make them real. Confetti marbles are made all over the world and to knock one down to a specific origin would be very difficult for any colletcor. To make these is a simple but labor driven task. The marbles, as they come down the rollers red hot--are sprinkled with glass frit--then rounded. It appears that some of your frit was lost-or did not stick--a first for me. Marble--On!!

Peltier Rainbo, Peltier Rainbo, Jabo "Lawn Chair", Peltier "Muddy" (a Rainbo as well) Marble--On!!

I am getting Vitro vibes here. Marble--On!!

Great stuff Roberto! Thanks for this and-- Marble--On!!

I have been doing this for many years and doubt is always a fraction of any ID regardless of the marble involved. Your instincts will come into play later than sooner. Once you get a lock on your instincts--you are on your way to a more definite ID. My instincts tell me Peltier—“Rainbo” And I still may be wrong—this is the fun, and I appreciate all opinions. Marble—On!!

It is special--not an All-Red imho-A "Tiger Eye"--made by Vitro. I apprecaite all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

I get that, Welcome my friend. Show us what you have, 3-4 marbles at a time with several angles included. Pick out the ones with multiple colors—the larger the better. We are all here to help you with your ID of your Dads marbles. You keep on rocking with your diagnoses and keep the faith. Post your images in the ID section and expect better results. Marble—On!!

I would love to see @Chad G. opinions here. I think that it has been "buffed" at the very least. Nice marble--Great images--- Marble--On!!

It is a swirl x2--no cateye here. I would not be surprised to see someone saying that this is a Ravenswood marble from the "digs". I love the "Chunk" in this one. Nice marble regardless of the ID. I respect all ID attempts and hope to see some more here. Great images as well. I stiil love the "nut"--is this the OG? Marble--On!!

Nice Horse-Shoe Cat! A real Beauty! I have always appreciated the transparent glass in this type as well as the “Vitro Hybrids”. Nice Marble-Great images! Marble—On!!

X2 Vacor-- Marble--On!!

I agree with Vacor here--a very nice one. You are comparing it to an older "Master Made Marble". This is not a rule but "Master Made Marbles" just feel harder or colder when you touch them for some insane reason that I can not explain. In the original Masters (Master Made turned into Master Glass), it is hard the even feel a cutmark in most of them with your finger nail. They were very well made. Hope this helps--- Marble--On!!
