    Jabo?

    I would sort this one as a Vacor. No name from me. Marble--On!!
  2. Lol🤪--- you mean your are starting a marble addiction right? Welcome Pete2226 to "TheMarbleConnection" the oldest marble board on Planet Earth--maybe the whole Galaxy. I may be mental here-- but my first thought was Peltier Rainbo. Both Vitro and Peltier made some very strong--"well cooked" transparent glass. I have been wrong before--before--before this. (many times before this) I can take my lumps and move on. Just food for thought. Marble--On!!

    Vitro?

    Sometimes you have to look away from the colors and focus on the construction. If Vitro, it would be a weird "Whitie" if Peltier--a weird "Rainbo". The colors line up with both companies--the blow outs do not. I do not remember many Vitro with all-out chip surrounded blow holes. Peltiers are known for this so I lean towards Peltier Rainbo. Nice share--interesting for sure. Marble--On!!

    ???

    Search for the cutlines on this one, they do not line up with the white vs transparent. The white shows an orangish glow--possible opalescent glass. I think that you have a Vitro "Conqueror" here. Marble--On!!

    ???

    I agree with Wolf. I would not call it a swirl--but a catseye instead. This one saw some good play--love it. It could be another--state you impressions here, we all will welcome them. Marble--On!!

    Shooter

    This is a one inch marble, consider the size here. I am on the fence about this one. Vacor ( a weird "Sunset) or--the Akro digs did find some similar to this one--larger sized. The older collectors (yep-older than me😁) called them "Sparklers, I never really got it there. I think that Alox is just not right, I may be wrong--nice research though. All opinions are appreciated. Marble--On!!
  7. This one came from the British Isles imho. Nice Marble. Nice images as well--- All opinions are welcomed. Marble—On!!
  8. Fantasy-for sure🤢. Marble--On!!
  9. Akro Agate made a lot of "Patch Type" marbles. I would consider Akro here with a slight lean towards Vitro Agate. Nice marble! Great post! All opinions are appreciated and welcomed. Marble--On!!
  10. Nice images here. I would probably sort it as a nice big "Imperial". I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  11. This one is a Peltier "Rainbo" imho. Nice find! Nice images as well!!! Marble--On!!
  12. I would need clearer images to make a definite ID. I see the metal (very cool) I do not see the "Pincher". Lets call in @shiroaiko and @YasudaCollector for an opinion here. They both know the Japenese products very well. Marble--On!!
  13. You will not find many Master Made Marbles with defects like "metal included". This is a top shelf Master imho-very rare. Marble--On!!

    Pelt?

    I doubt that the black is opaque. Get a strong pen-light underneath it and look again. I am guessing that it looks purple.(maybe brown) The white is opalescent imho and many marble companies use "cullet glass" or leftover glass from the factory that mad "Ponds Cold Cream" Jars. This one is not a Peltier. It is a WVS or West Virginia Swirl that includes many companies. My guess ( I suck at WVS ID) would be Alley Agate. I appreciate the nice images, the size and you patience here. Marble--On!!
