  1. So do I--great marble! Great colors as well! Marble--On!!
  2. These are great images--I love them. Notice the almost Coke bottle appearance of the clearer glass, this is something to consider because it tells the tale of recycled glass which was and still is a thing with Asian made marbles. Marble—On!
  3. You get plenty right Fire--Champion X3-4. Marble--On!!
  4. Not too odd imho--just one of those "Rainbos" Marble--On!!
  5. I liked "played with" marbles and this one is a Pelt. Cool your tool and look for a more minty variety--just simple advice here. Marble--On!!
  6. Nice images once again. Akro x3. Marble--On!!
  7. "Comets", as in Master Made Marbles. I agree--- Marble--On!!
  8. "All Red" x2 probably from the sixties. These "all red" were named by the owner. He wanted red in all of his marbles--It just never worked out his way😁. Marble--On!!
  9. @YasudaCollector and @shiroaiko may have an opinion here. Marble--On!!

    Bloodie?

    Rainbo--no doubt. Marble--On!!
  13. Many unanswered questions here. This is a very good video though. Marble—On!!
  14. LOL X2 ---this is one great description of a marble that I would never had imagined,. Just gross but true--good eye. Marble--On!!
  15. No need to cancel or delete here. It is a nice marble and I just gave an opinion that I will stand by. Many collectors would call this one, the red one, an Akro. We all learn from posts like this and that is why we are here--to learn. Well, this is a group of images of a marble that on my PC, does not show any Akro colors. The base is just not clear/transparent enough and the red--well--not Akro in my experiance at least. We all offer opinions here--this is just my humble opinion and I may be wrong. Keep Marbling On!!
  16. I think that you have a nice Vacor "Sea Turtle" here. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  17. It does appear to be a machine made--no way. I think that @Alan is right on here. Marble--On!!
  18. I am not convinced that this one is an Akro--just my humble opinion. I am getting some Asian vibes here. I appreciate all opinions and post what I think is an honest opinion based on my experience only. Marble--On!!
  19. Ummm? Who is the maker here Wolf? You have found a weird name but have not named a maker or the size. Give us some more information. Marble--On!
  20. This is a very small one and I would venture a guess only. Here is my guess-- Jabo Classic. I appreciate all opinons and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  21. Yes a bit “pissy” but acceptable. I agree that a loupe is a thing to own when collecting or selling marbles. I looked with my loupe when I sold marbles--not so much anymore. Some of these Pelts with AV need a loupe to determine the colors involved with the AV. Old eyes need help, and I will always use a loupe. This is a great topic, and I think that we have all learned from it. "Eye appeal" is not always the function of buying a marble. Many collectors insist on a mint marble and a loupe will get you further than a simple ID under light. My wife purchased a few for me as a “present" at a marble show quite a few years back. I appreciated them as a "Present”, but they were polished Akro Popeyes.( yep, I told her and reported him) This was about 20 years ago. Marble—On!!
  22. Wow--great finds! You know what they are and this is a great thing to find out as a collector--I know that it not come easy--the knowledge. Marble--On!!
  23. Back lighting is a good way to enjoy these cute little orbs. It does have some value in the ID of marbles. Backlighting them all is my motto. Nice stuff here. Marble—On!
  24. This one is a Pelt Rainbo--a hairy one😁. You must have cats in your house. Marle--On!!
