  1. I hope that @Al Oregon can give me an idea of the vintage of this bag. I see a lot of Asian marble bags for sale—not so many Japanese. Marble—On!!
  2. I do not think so Fire, The yellow reminds me of this type of CAC. The little blowholes and the diving design do not call out as Vacor to me. There are also dimples which remind me of CAC.
  3. Your last one is a simple Rainbo that more than likely has a name--sorry, I do not keep up with them--the names. Nice marble though! Marble--On!!
  4. I appreciate the fact that you have taken the time to measure these marbles and respect them for what they are. The top image shows what I think is an Asian type on the left. It probably came in an Imperial set of marbles. The Imperial company was a jobber-or reseller of marbles on the west coast that purchased marbles from a variety of Asian makers, repackaged them and sold them in the USA market The third one in is more than likely a Vacor from Mexico, they made a bunch of pee-wee marbles. You seem to like the "crackle glass" one. Kids used to cook these in a frying pan filled with water until they cracked up. They were also marked as such, I cannot remember by who. The value with these marbles is with the owner/collector/finder only—straight up. If you like em—collect-em, just do not pay much for-em. No one here will ever blame you for that. The rest of what you show are not identifiable and common. Blunt it is, but I deal with truth. Marble—On--- my marble collecting friend.
  5. That red/yellow on black is very interesting and it is giving me some CAC vibes. I have not seen any marble like it before. The mostly yellow one is a Marble King--"Blended something". I am going to say Champion on the white/purplish on a clear based one. More opinions are needed on all. Good Luck! Marble--On!!
  6. I am with you--weird one for sure. Nice marble--no Idea what it is here. Marble--On!!

    Does #1 have any yellow involved? It looks at least like a varient of a "Buttermilk" to me. Nice marble that one! Marble--On!!
  8. I agree with Vacor. Marble--On!!
  9. Could this one be from the Alley digs Ric? Marble--On!!
  10. Hmm, Ive seen stuff like this before. I always thought that they were knife holders for kitchen use. I have no idea what a "filter rod" is. Cool Beans!
  11. I always use my old standby White Vinegar. It may clean them up a bit but not all of the way. There may be some tricks that others know. Bottle-On!!
  12. Me too Ric but it does looke like a pinched pontil on my monitor--no clue as to what the marble may be though. It does appear to be slightly out of round. Marble--On!!
  13. Agreeed. Nice marble though. Marble--On!!
  14. I would not have a hard time calling this one a "Rainbo"--but that is me. More opinions are needed. Marble--On!!

    HMMMM?? Anemic "Cubscout"--just a guess here. Marble--On!!
  16. I agree with Chad-- Marble--On!!
  17. Here is a link that expalins "confetti" marbles pretty well. https://www.allaboutmarbles.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&p=382835&sid=d9beb1fcecd1eb1d7cc0f555359418ac With confetti marbles you are generally able to feel the little specs of color with your fingers. I think that Alan has this right--it could be Chinese--they are making a lot of torch marbles. Marble--On!!
  18. The two that I have circled are interesting for sure--nice group of slags. More images please. Marble--On!!
  19. Ask away treetiger, questions are a good thing. Marble--On!!
  20. MFC imho--very nice regardless of the damage. These bigger sizes were never an easy find for me here in Wisconsin. Marble--On!!
  21. Cool stuff Fire--the yellow does not really match up with Pelt--Just an observation. Marble--On!!
