In my mind and in my house, I call these "Woodies". One is opaque and one has a transparent base. I do not know if they meet the mark but they are mine and I will call them what I want to. Marble--On!!

Goofy--you mean goofy as opposed to collecting marbles? I have collected "Curtain tie backs" for years. I wish that I could show you the whole image, I keep my passwords posted on it. I put them on an old rotted 3x3 mouse chewed window frame that I put a cork background on. Very cool little things--I have a bunch of them. (who does not love a Meadowlark ?) The car is a "Dinky" Made in England--I could care less. It was my first real drivable car. I got it from my older bro for $15--just what he payed for it--pretty cool. The post card is more accurate color wise. I had to stop and think about weird for awhile. We all collect weird stuff. Marble--On!!

Respect—keep it going all. I just love this place. Marble-on!!

Love it--keep them comin Joe. Marble--On!!

I believe that "Twisters" are still being made today. If you find a good net full--$6.50 would be my limit on the Mega nets. I am a bottom feeder--enough said. Marble--On!!

I see two seams. I checked out the listing for a better opinion for you. The seller appears to have the rest of the marbles for sale right on the money. I can agree with CAC on this one, it is either a weak CAC "Striped Transparent" or a CAC "Striped Swirl". Not a slag imho. Of course both are rare and for that price—I would have to see it in hand. Nuff said. Marble—On!!

A weak one for sure. This reminds me of one that my Pa cut out of the yard for Christmas--why was I the only one that said it smelled like cat pee. A spruce of some sort--it did not last past the 26th. Still a nice marble and I am sure that it smells like glass (I can smell glass, especially Akro glass) Marble--On!!

It was bound to happen--Of course I never really did "get it". Just another collector caught in the swamp of information. Marble--On!!

Actually --in my mind, the only thing that I have called you is a "most welcome addition" to the MarbleConnection. Marble--On!!

The last two images point me towards Master. Nice overhead shot of the cutlines. Masters will display a 2/3-1/3 construction often enough for me to be convinced of a trait. That being said--I am wearing sunglasses as I post (dilated from an eye appointment) It may be a Vitro. Marble--on!!

Not an Atmosphere--They are around one inch (or bigger in the more rare versions). Marble--On!!

The term "Amorphous glob" comes to mind on the third one. ( what a great term) The spelling may be incorrect. I have seen the description before—I believe that it was in Stephs Study Hall (maybe not) describing a Vitro. Maybe @Steph can help. Marble—On!!

I can agree with Alley here. Your images are close to the ones that I take outside. Trees overhead--reflecting, A gray picnic table? I need to get a reflector for outside shots--next on the list. Nice marble! Marble--On!!

X3--- Marble--On!!

Great call Steph! Fire-- When Steph steps out like this--you have to appreciate it. I think that yours is the same--great marble!! Marble--On!!

Nice marble--no oxblood though. Marble--On!!

Agreed. I could never find a name for the Vacor version of this one. Marble--On!!

The green one gives me Jabo Vibes. Marble--On!!

Nice marble! Marble--On!!

I would sort it as a Vitro. That yellowish hunk is a bit weird. I have often wondered how many times birds may have polluted marbles. The grit that they eat has to end up somewhere. Marble--On!!

X2--Great show!! Marble--On!!

This may be where the muddy idea got started in the OP? https://www.peltiermarbles.info/copy-of-tracers Marble--On!!

Thanks Chad, It seems like we just went through this--danged if I could find it today. Marble--On!!

I agree with Ric. There are red muddies, blue muddies, and the original very nice Greenish-Blue Sapphire colored muddies,( yes I said Sapphire )and a straight up no color muddy, probably some others as well. I happen to love them all with this type of base glass--all of them. Here is a backlight image of the original--along with my favorite "Muddy" Image. I will accept it as a "Muddy" if it has this base glass. It is almost Opal--I am not quite sure though. I apreciate all opinions and welcome them. Marble--On!!

They are all Pelts Al, imho at least Two are more simple Rainbos, one is more complex imho--maybe a NLR. marble--On!! The name game with Pelts gets me confused as well. I cannot really say that "simple" or more common Rainbos make the mark as far as the "Red Bee" category goes, or the Red Dragon either with the top notch "Peltheads"(Hardcore Pelt collectors) There are plenty of "Rainbos" out there with names though. It was way easier when there were more NLR's around to find. Hardley anything was named in the "Rainbo" family then, it was NLR or bust. ( of course there was the "Miller Machine" argument as well"). I have had plenty of "Millers" pass through my hands and I still believe that they are a different marble, from a different process. When I started collecting, "Millers" were the hot item and NLR’s were just an afterthought. It was just as NLR and "Rainbos" are now. "Rainbos" are more commonly collected today because the supply of the others has melted down into collections. I would call yours "Red Bees". This is the older collectors that had an ample supply of the originals vs the newer collectors that do not. I for one will not stand in the way of the newer collectors. The "Golden Dragons" have a much brighter yellow and a more transparent red to them.(and then we get into the "Dragons"---enough said) Ramble On!! I appreciate all opinions--New collectors and old (not that old-) collectors as well. I just hope that some hard-nosed Peltheads chime in. Marble--On!!
