  1. It is a Vitro imho the colors are close to being an "Exotic", just missing some colors. This one has to be set aside as a "one--of" for sure. I like the "Brown Oxblood" effect of the stripe on this one--yes--I do look hard. Very cool imho! Marble--On!!
  2. Jabo Classic--meaning a production made marble--not a "contract type". These big ones are hard to find in good condition--yours looks pretty good--a keeper for sure. These usually show up with little white hit marks. This one shows some wear( they are usually quite shiny). Nice marble! Marble--On!!
  3. This one qualifies as a slag imho--by an unknown maker. Many companies made slags. Marble--On!!
  4. Nice marble! Nice images! Marble--On!!
  5. This image reminds me that it is winter and all kinds of dust will stick to almost anything in the dryer conditions. Cool image--just dust imho. Jabo--Yes!! Marble--On!!
  6. Well----"Wet Mint" is a misnomer for most seasoned collectors but yours look at the very least "Mint". These are not real old but they are real cool--very cool. They may Be MK "Painted Turtles". @Melissa knows these pretty well--lets call her for an evaluation. Marble--On!!
  7. Notice the little line of Oxblood. Marble--On!!
  8. This one is a keeper regardless of the damage. I do not recall seeing anything this large in an Akro before. Nice "Cork". Marble--On!!
  9. Peltier "Rainbo"--nice one! Marble--On!!
  10. Never be afraid to show the top of the box with this one Tommy. I just sent a pouch to match your boxes "well used" look. It is a cool find with a bunch of "Patina ā€œinvolved. I only wish that I knew the story behind it, just imagine it-that is enough. Many would have tossed this one aside--this one deserves to be shown as a "Relic". Well purchased and preserved, I just love this stuff. Measure the top left hand marble--top row--it may be a Pee-Wee—yep, ā€œMasterMadeMarblesā€ made a few Pee-Wee’s, very cool to find. Marble--On!!
  11. The Furnace types have never been under-rated imho-- The Champions as a regular run marble have been though--imho. Nice Marbles!! Marble--On!!
  12. I do not know your marbles as far as rarest goes. This one show traits of a Crow imho. Post it in the ID section for a better idea--this is Akro Friday--not really a place for discussion of ID Love it--- Marble--On!!
  13. So do I. This one shows what we collectors would call "Pocket Wear". If it is a Jabo I would be surprised--WVS of some sort imho. Lets call in @cheese for an opinion. Marble--On!!
  14. X2--nice find!! Marble--On!!
  15. I just love this type of marble--it just feels old looking at it. Very cool! Marble--On!!
  16. I believe it--you swirl guys are Wizards as far as I am concerned. Thanks for all of your hard work--and passion for this hobby. Marble--On!!
  17. Nice marbles! Check the black--if it is black--for AV--maybe a crossover type. Marble--On!!
  18. I would love to see them also. I have a few that he collected from the Jabo runs only--he had a good eye and I have a bad way of keeping them named via collector. This may be one.
  19. Chad is right on here. Imho this is a weak attempt at making a marble. Perhaps someone just is getting into glass making and trying out orbs. Is it cool?—well it sure is, I love the colors. I will not lie here and tell you that it is great. If the maker was proud of his/her work—it would be signed. Marble—On!!
  20. Champion made some great marbles—I agree Ric. Nice marble!! Nice well cropped images as well. Marble—On!!
  21. Well, it is a pretty cool Rainbo--is it more? Lets ask @Chad G.. Marble--On!!
  22. Hold on here--just sayin. The right hand one needs more images. It may be a "Jorkscrew"--(Jabo that corks) Just my opinion and I appreciate them all. Marble--On!!
  23. Well Fire--I have my Lego going on today--just 5/8" imho. Pretty dark on the white--just a cool and weird Rainbo imho. Marble--On!!
  24. I always like to throw Champion into the discussusion with a marble like this one. @Nantucketdink may have some opinions here😁. Nice marble! Nice images!! Marble—On!!
