  1. Once again I will defer to @YasudaCollector and @shiroaiko. This one looks Asian to me. Marble--On!!
  2. @shiroaiko and @YasudaCollector can give an excellant assessment here. I hope that they chime in on this one. Marble--On!!
  3. @YasudaCollector? @shiroaiko? Your opinions are needed and respected here. Marble--On!!
  4. A" does appear to be a Vitro-- "B" does appear to be a Peltier. "C" does appear to be an earlier Master, the finish tells me this on this one, these Masters even feel cold to the touch, they are hard and easy to feel and find after some experience is gained--Nice one here imho. I had to "fix" all of these marbles on my Photo Editor to make any “Readable”, so the jury is still out here. In the future, try your best to give nice, clear, well lit images. Shooting three at a time rarely works out--they are all different and require their own lighting. Nice job so far--I am convinced that you can step it up a bit though. Keep coming back with any questions and of course, Marble—On!!
  5. Very Nice Find! A first see for me--nice share. Marble--On!!
  6. Good stuff Bumblebee, It is a nice marble for sure and I know from experience how hard it is to get a good shot of facets on these marbles. We all know from history that the Germans had a huge influence on South America and anything from this continent is worth exploring. Marble—On!!
  7. This could be it. You will find these with flats spots from being used over the many years---pretty cool item. These "table foot marbles" also showed up quite rarely with "Fancier Germans". Generally—not a rule, these will show a slight glow under UV light. Nice share here—good job all! Marble—On!!
  8. I agree with Imperial--nice find! Marble--On!!
  9. I agree with both comments above. Akro slags run the gammit though from well covered in white or almost anemic. Yours are both nice marbles and I lean towards Akro for both. Nice marbles regardless! Marble--On!!
  10. Akro "Tricolor Patch" imho. Nice one. The Vitro and Akro of this type can be a hard ID--you did well. Marble--On!!

    Patch?

    Jinx Tommy--lol. Marble--On!!

    Patch?

    Welcome Sugagman to "TheMarbleConnection". Your single image is not enough for as proper ID. Take several crisp shots, crop them well and post again. Marble--On!!
  13. We are great full for the share IowaMarble, a "best day" for sure. This is a very nice example. Marble--On!!
  14. This image has to re-worked by you Opae ula. All that I get are reflections of possibly you. Try backlighting it, or under-lighting from the bottom up. It looks like an interesting marble but we have to see it to give any opinion here. Thanks for your efforts and --- Marble—On!!
  15. Hmmm, what "format" are you using for images? What platform do you use? Microsoft,Apple,Google etc-- Smart Phone, computer, or tablet etc? We all would love to help you out here and welcome by the way to "TheMarbleConnection" my marble collecting friend. Marble--On!!
  16. Master sounds right to me! Years ago I had a big box of Master Gamers--I looked them quite hard--even backlighting them. These bring back some old rusty memories. Marble--On!!
  17. This is just a guess on my part. Late 50’s to early 60”s. They have taken off in the last 30 or so years. Now, everyone makes them. More opinions are need here and I welcome them all. Marble—On!!
  18. I do not own a smart phone--but this one is worth a bump up marbo. Marble--On!!
  19. These are simply "little beuties" to hold and look at. Marble--On!!
  20. Nice share here doutone! I have heard of these--I have never seen one before, not even an image. My pockets are not that deep-- and if I have not seen it, very few have---imho. @Al Oregon has been around awhile maybe he has seen one. @Steph? This is a book seller--just look at "sellers other items" and search "marbles". There are three other books there that I have not seen before, @Chad G. and @cheese would get a kick out of some of these. Marble--On!
  21. X3--Great images--thanks for that! Marble--On!!

    ?.?

    This one is not an easy ID Steph. I resign--lol. Marble--On!!
  23. This is a very nice Vitro imho. Nice clear glass is involved here--a joy to look at. Marble--On!!
  24. OMG--This one shows "Pocket Wear"--very cool!! What a great find! It may be one of "Those"----a rare Vitro imho. The cutlines define this one imho. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. A nice share regardless of the ID. Very nice--well cropped images as well. Thanks for that from all of us here @TheMarbleConnection Marble--On!!
  25. Yep--just the green thing that is unabsorbed mineral stuff that just makes it a very cool marble—not intentional—just cool to find and share with us here. This is a great group, nice images as well. Marble—On!!
