I may have seen it without knowing it. I doubt that is displays as shown in this add. If it was a Marble King produced item--there would be some ID on the cover at the very least. (you know that "Berry Pink" would be all over the cover) Nice advertisement piece Ric! MNarble--On!!

OK, Here I go again posting first on MK Monday--what is up with that?? Post some MK's here and never look back. Marble King made some great ones and they are still avaiable. Marble—On!!

If it was 3/4"--or .750--I would pay up at $35.--not a penny more. These are very nice to look at---and shine black light on! This is a nice marble--no doubt. Marble--On!!
-
There are few here that will quote a price----if these were mine, and I was a seller—I would start at $20 and hope for the best. Marble—On!!

Here I go--quoting myself again. Marble—On!!

Here is one from the Marble King of the Netherlands.
akroorka replied to akroorka's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
As I recall---There was a man in Germany on the border with the Netherlands’ that made a wide variety of these. Sadley, his place burnt down never to be seen again. @Mojo will bring this story to life once again. I will post a few more here. Marble--On!! -
Look up Steely Torpedo on the Vacor site—very intense-I have never seen one. The OP are more than likely a version of the new age Vacor Meteor. Marble—On!!
-
OK Windex translated to Spanish is??----well Windex I guess😁. ( it is way better than anti-freeze--my tought) Marble--On!!
-
I totally agree Ric--but I will give a nod to your old pal whenever I can remember. Marble--On!!
-
This one is just less than one inch—I think that is a “Wicked Owl”---just a killer marble with a very cool transparent colored base glass—what would you call this color?? Marble—On!!
-
Nice one Melissa, This is why the Vacors are commonly mistaken for Pelts. I agree-Vacor--almost a killer Pelt MCS in the wrong hands. Nice job!! Marble--On!!
-
Bless you as well--Akro patches are not always an easy ID. I think that you have your Mojo Here. Marble--On!!

"Knikker Zak" translates to "Marble Pouch". A nice gift from an overseas collector--I just love it!! I do collect pouches. Marble--On!!

Join the club my marble collecting friend--we all like a good score and we all look for it every day--- Marble--On!!
-
The OP is a WVS of some make or manner--no Vacor here imho. I looked hard because it reminded me of some Pelts that I have seen---nope. Marble--On!!
-
This one is not worth the while for a Blocks auction my marble collecting friend--just sayin!! Marble--On!!
-
Where is the rust? I have packed plenty of bearings back in the days--this one should have a flat side or two to it if it is a burnt bearing. To tell the truth--a great post and thread considering the object. Marble-On!!
-
Good point! Marble--On!!
-
It seems to me that Ron, our treasured marble collecting friend---RIP, described seeing this process with either Vitro or Jabo marbles as they were being made. It involved a spray process once the marbles hit the rollers. I agree--hard to tell the difference between the ones that were made by a variety of companies. Marble--On!!

Same thing in Wisconsin---a good thing too.

Pretty cool Melissa. My wife and I were lucky enough to find some in bloom a few years back in a protected bog area. Very cool to see.
