  1. Yes imho. Marble--On!!
  2. Akro slag x3. Look Up "Cardinal Red". Marble--On!!
  3. This is a very cool find. It has to be part of a Machine--Kiln that was broken up and disgarded. Many parts of a "Machine" had a limited lifespan but eventually the entire kiln had to be remade--just because of use. These pieces of the Kiln always carried some glass on them. The folks back then just dumped what they considered as junk into the rivers--or landfills. Go back and find some more--dig deep. Good luck! I Just love this stuff! Marble--On!!
  4. I would have to say that this one is an Akro Corkscrew. "Experimental" is the old term for one found in a dig site. I think that you have one here. It could have been made during a switch in color combos--these were commonly tossed aside between runs. I have a huge imagination but this one has some of the "wipsy white" that I would associate with the "Popeyes'. I wonder what went on with this one? It is not a Popeye---- Nice keep and share. Marble--On!!
  5. This one is a Pelt Rainbo. If you can get an angle on the white it might just be Opal. Shine a white light through the white and if you see a reddish glow--it is Opalescent white. A bonus for me at least. Nice find!! Marble--On!!
  6. Nice share for sure. This one shows what we collectors call "Pocket Wear". The wear could be there for a variety of reasons--but pocket wear is the term that we use most commonly. Any collector would love to hold and see this one. If the finish were intact and shiny--the sky could be the limit as far as $$ go. I love that your friend saved it and allowed you to share it with us here. Marble--On!!
  7. Nice stuff Chad. I have picked up so many pieces of Imperial over the years that I lost track. Me to my wife--"Hey Dear" Is this Akro? LOL--answer---"Nope--put it back and do not break it".😁. Oh well, I did pretty well most of the time.
  8. Nice "Hand Vase" Tommy, very nice! I call white a color, as most artists do--not that I am an Artist-lol. Nice find!
  9. I aways give my best ID--this does not mean that it is right. I appreciate any opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  10. This is a common Jabo imho. Marble--On!!
  11. MK--nice big one imho. Marble-On!!
  12. Master sounds right here. Marble--On!!
  13. Jabo imho--from one of the "runs". Marble-On!!
