It was actually raining today so I took some time to sort through some recent purchases. Take your time—Winter is coming—. I am sure that you can tell my fave—the Akro yellow Ox patch---a pretty hard find—for me at least. The three whites in a row are all old hand-made. There were some very similar clays that were included with this bunch—Watch for these—they do resemble machine made game marbles—just a tad out of round for the most part. The bigger clay at the top—I cannot remember—either I was warned about them or at the very least informed—. The top left is a Vitro “Cosmic Rainbow” the one to the lower left of it—I do not know—a WVS for sure is all that I can say. Yep-- a Popeye showed up in the mix as well as a nice Vitro to the left of it. The two far left are Vitro Cats in GB Packers colors—after a 17 point comeback this week-end—who can blame me---😁 Funny what you can find when you really look—take your time and collect—these all came with pouches that I bid for with the exception of the yellow ox patch—the rest are all a bonus. Put your specs on, use a nice light and take your time!! I know that Fire does-follow his example--just take your time!!! If you need any further images—just ask--- I just love this stuff!!—Just love it!! Marble—On!!

I am pretty sure that there is a MCS with these colors--I just cannot remember the third color--nice Rainbo Fire! Marble--On!!

Happy Birthday Steph!!

Compare the colors to a blue Pelt Banana--could it be one that floated on the surface--?? Marble—On!!

Nice marble Fire. The base looks blue to me—instead of clear glass. Of course that Popeye with the trans yellow base that glows I have always considered a “Popeye”. I would nestle this one in with my Popeyes, not being sure just what to call it. Where else should it go? Marble—On!!

Nice group!! Marble--On!!

Vitro?? Marble--On!!

I love the lashes--nice job Tommy!! Marble--On!!

This is way too funny--thanks for sharing that-- Marble--On!!

This is a tuff one Fire--- Are you sure that it is a Cat-- Marble--On!!

Post this one in the ID section Fire--- Marble--On!!

Happy Friday everyone!!! These "Olive Drab" corks always have some av--just polution from the batch glass--but still AV in my world. These are not too common. Marble--On!!

Nice marble--I agree! Marble--On!!

This is a tuff one,the images are too bright. I tried to adjust them with little luck--this one is a WVS no doubt. More opinions and images are needed. Marble on my fellow collector--nice marble! (if this one is not an Alley--well I do suck at WVS ID) Marble--On!!

The blow holes are not too common with Akro marbles--pretty rare really. I suggest that another maker may be have to looked into. It is a big one for sure so that narrows it down----CAC? Marble--On!!

Set one aside my friend--I love these. Marble--On!!

Thanks Tommy for the great images--I have never seen these in hand--good job!! Marble--On!!!

Good question--I would love to see it--the collection. Marble--On!!

These large sized ones--up to an inch or so came from the Akro digs as I recall, yours does look similar to them. Otherwise--it sure looks like a Master. Marble--On!!

I am pretty sure that you have a Master there Fire. Marble--On!!

The cut mark on your second one is what I look for; it appears to include a lesser shade of yellow. I would call it a four—in my castle anyhow. The OP is a weird one for sure. In my Castle—six colors would work for me—very cool! The cut marks are the key, I would like to see the other side. Both are nice—the second one would be killer with two colors—nice action—very nice—top shelf! The spinner cup was going wild with this one. Marble—On!!
