  1. Put a name on this one Ric--and a size-for those of us(including me) who cannot call it. If it is your best--it must be special. Thanks for sharing it. Marble--On!!
  2. Thanks all! Sometimes you get lucky---it still happens. Marble--On!!
  3. Nice Moonies Ric! I would love to see some Electric Yellow CAC Slags--The very best slag ever made imho. Show them if you have them!! Marble--On!!
  4. I will this call this one a Ravenswood until you Ravens tell me different. Just over 9/16”. A real nice marble. Hard Glass, good depth and color and well worth the time I spent to post it. I appreciate all opinions and respect them all. Thanks, and Marble—On!!

    My Garden

    Nice garden Mojo. I love the Goldfish--I have a small pond--no lilly pads though. Nice job!
  6. Too small Fire. The Atmos start at around one inch, the ones that were sold in nets at ToysRus. Marble--On!!
  7. Love it! Marble--On!!
  8. I will stand by my assessment. We all want what is not—. Great discussion! I just love this stuff!!! Just love it! Research and research some more---then do it again and again---Just do not convince yourself of something that it is not, without it, the research. I wish that it was a CAC---really I do. Enuff said from little old me. Marble—On!!

  10. Not too Shabby my marble collecting friend!! Marble--On!!
  11. I would call it a corkscrew--I am not too fussy though. That is what it was intended to be--nuf said. Marble--On!!
  12. That is a great looking flower frog CharlieT. Polish it up and backlight it-- Marble--On!!
  13. Welcome to The Marble Connection Brian Bailey. You have some great looking marbles there--post a few at a time--the ones that you like the best--That is the way to collect--what you like! Marble--On!!
  14. The OP, Noodleloaf is a Vacor “Sunflower”. The more that I see your images, the more that I am convinced of it---I have no doubts whatsoever. You put up a great argument and there has been great discussion regarding this one. We all have to learn more about Vacor Marbles—no doubt about it. The Vacor webpage has given us all that we would desire of any company—ID wise. They show the best and some not too good as well. I am going by the Morphey Auction page alone here. I have identified five Vacors. In the following image. From left to right—the circled ones “Twister” “Sunflower” “Scorpion” “Bumblebee” “Yellow Jacket” Yours is not a CAC—plain and simple, just a nice Vacor “Sunflower”, great marbles in their own right—just not a CAC. Marble—On!!
  15. This one reminds me of an English Whispler. The bright yellow reminds me of some of those big dug Akros that have been sold as "Sparklers". I am leaning "Dug Akro" here. I appreciate all opinions and love them all. Marble--On!!
  16. I would sort this one as an Akro. I appreciete all opinions-- Marble--On!!
  17. Akro for sure--nice ID my marble collecting friend!! Marble--On!!
  18. My research has been extensive as to the maker of the boxes---many differernt types of boxes. Back then there were many box makers--you have to know when to fold them sometimes--I threw in. Marble--On!!
  19. This one was deceiving—not because of the seller, because if the images. The seller was selling marbles that he/she did not know about—he/she did some research and sold them as they may have been described to her/him. I blame the buyer here—not the seller. Nuff said!! Marble—On!!
  20. Whatt?? A Cat's Eye in WV Wednesday?? Yep--Master Glass--a nice one-- Marble--On!!
  21. Welcome Angie. I agree with both of the folks above. I worked it over on my photo image software and it does appear to be an older West Viginia Swirl-WVS. No maker from me however. ( maybe a Ravenswood?) Marble--On!!
