Master Made Brushed Patch? Am I close ? thanks in advance !!
akroorka replied to DHUNNIE 27's topic in Marble I.D.'s
Nice images! Melissa is right on X2. Master Glass imho. Marble--On!! -
This is a normal "what is it to me". We here see many like it. It could be an Alley Agate---or an "Alox". Is it cool--yes it is--is it easy to ID--well not very easy. It is a wvs no doubt. Marble--On!!

I like this type--I think that it is a dug WVS--probably an Alley Agate. I thought Vacor at first but they seem to have better grading than this one has. The damage on this one along with the out of roundness suggest what I think is right. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

Yep--at first I thought "Imperial marble". This one is finished too well. Master Made Marbles--even Master Glass Marbles always show up with a nice hard-- well finished surface. No pits or cutline’s are regular with them--they do show up from time to time but Imperials will almost always show some form of unfinished business with the finish. Nice find! Marble—On!!

Thanks Al--great stuff as always. Happy New Year to you! I think that you may just love this stuff as much as I do. Many Happy Returns! Marble--On!!

"Snakeskin"--very cool! I deleted your double post--no worry. I have done it plenty with Chad backing me up. Does this one look like Oxblood to you? It is a very cool marble non-the-less. Thanks for sharing it! Marble--On!!

I know UV but 395 is not in my venacular--please explain this. These marbles remind me of something that I never really got cleared up as far as I can remember. I think Vitro, many thought Akro. This type came in some "Victory" marked "jobber boxes" boxes marketed during the "Bicentennial". The colors are very close to what I found in a Vitro "Fisher Jewel Tray" involving helmets. I will show some images below. I think that the OP are Vitro marbles Marble--On!!

@Chad G. @cheese@Al Oregon@Alan @stephenb@Ric@Gladys@Shamrock Marbles@Nantucketdink@Tommy@akronmarbles--lets fire this one up.

I agree--nuff said! Marble--On!!

This one is a Vacor "Zebra" imho--just a really nice one. @Mojo has seen more of these weird ones than I ever have. I have no doubt that Vacor uses "cullet", or glass from other companies--this may explain the "glow". @Andy McLaughlin from Alaska has seen even more than @Mojo but he is probably out fishing--he wrote the books on these Vacor "weirdos". I would love him to check in during the luul in fishing/hunting/being an Alaskan—. Marble—On!!

One more day-----show your best/favorite! I will post my best find on the 31st--yep, even better than this one! Marble--On!!

First of all --very nice images--lets get to the rest of the post. Marble--On!! Great link --but?? Marble--On!! Great link "et cetera"--But???. I have always agreed with "Master" (Master Glass) on these--what is a PB?--I am old--just take another second and type it out. Our old friend Ron Shaw researched these things like a fox go's after that rabbit that could never be caught. He was the Expert here--did he ever come to a conclusion @cheese? Regardless of this –Who really made these?? Do some research like Ron did and try to find out---Maybe----? These have been researched like no other machine made marble imho. I want to see them in bags--just sayin. At this point after a bit of research--the op is either a Ravenswood or a Master Glass made marble. I just love this stuff!! Marble—On!!
