  1. It sure does! I am thinking Akro here. Nice marble!
  2. Nice group of the smallies! Image seven may be a Vitro---colors only make me think this. #9 is probably a Master Made due to the cutlines and colors. The rest are Akro imho—just based on experience here and hard to explain. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. These little guys all act different from their bigger cousins—yep the 5/8”. Not always an easy ID these peewees. Marble—On!!
  3. Welcome NewGuy287 to TheMarbleConnection. Chad is right on--the middle images show a mixture of USA and Asian swirls. You may even have a Ravenswood in the mix--pretty cool. Break them up into groups of three or four and send some more images for ID. Marble--On!!
  4. Spiderman would be my best guess. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Nice marbles! marble--On!!
  5. I am on the Vacor Train here--nice marble. Marble--On!!
  6. So------a wooden handmade box designed to hold marbles?
  7. LOL, I got these from a Priest--same name--same problems--I may have been the holy man here. Marble--On!!
  8. Did I miss the size? The Chinese market is turning out little torch mades like bees make honey. Nice marble! I think That Alan is right on. Marble--On!!
  9. Carpet pins? I would love to see some more history on these--nice stuff. Marble--On!!
  10. @Melissa may have an opinion here. Marble--On!!
  11. Lol--do you mean shaving--I just hate it. Lets all just get hairy--I am in for it. Marble--On!!
  12. I wonder too but I would lean towards a WVS of some make or model. I apreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  13. Tonight, I am making a recipe from “All Recipes”. “Chef Johns Creamy Mushroom Pasta”. A first time for me but Chef John is always on point with his recipes and most are quite simple. I could eat mushrooms for breakfast—love -em. In the Midwest , in a smaller town you have to adjust and I will for sure. I have dried shitake—I will make them work. Eat –On!!
  14. I can eat these all day Chad. My oldest son raises a few chickens for eggs. His daughter( my grandaughter) was overnight last Friday and she just loves my pancakes from scratch--one egg was a double yolker. ( I am not a pancake guy--but I guess that I can make them well). I just purchased a new "Hex Clad" 12"pan and I woud have never imagined it cooking pancakes in it for the first time--it turned out to be a good test. They do get hot and they do not stick--turn the temp down for sure. I use the basic pancake recipe from "The Joy Of Cooking" recipe book. Killer book for sure. My Daugher -in Law took the remainder home and she said that she eats them cold. I just love this stuff! ( not pancakes though)
  15. Welcome to "TheMarbleConnection" KCBB. @Ponjong is right on the money imho. Nice marbles! Marble--On!!
  16. Nice display for sure. The glass ten cent marbles box has me wondering? Pretty cool imho. The “Sailor Boys” I am not familiar with. Nice stuff—great work! Marble—On!!
  17. They are of course marbles with a hole through them. I do not know the process here--how the holes were made. I can see "Lady Gaga" wearing these for sure. Nice stuff! Marble--On!!
  18. Thanks et cetera, I have not heard of "Teal" Akro slags before this post from you. I have never seen one before--good eye--great name. Marble--On!!
  19. La Crosse, Wisconsin is a great place to visit. Melissa is closer I think than I am, but I have visited there for one thing and one thing only –Antiques. These cities along the Mississippi river are a gold mine for cool old stuff from all over the world.
  20. This one is a wvs. I have not seen a Jabo like it--just sayin. I cannot name it. I respect all opinions and hope to see some more. Nice marble!
  21. Ummmm--MK is not what I would call it. This one needs some natural sunlight. Any Marble that shows pink is rare--well, before the Jabo Contracts at least. This is Pre-Jabo imho. Nice marble--more images are needed. Marble--On!!
  22. Just to be aware--this freezing method is only good for sauces. I run them under warm water, get the skins off along with the stem end and cook them down. Rubber gloves saves you from getting any freezer burn on your fingers. A food mill removes the pulp and seeds very niclely.( go ahead and put this disregarded stuff in your mulch and begin picking tomato weeds all year long) I would give you my recipe but it is quite personalized regarding sizes and measurements according to what I have used in the past. Eat food on!!
  23. One of mine too. Taco's--sounds great--I love a good fish taco but it just grosses my wife out for whatever reason so I wait until she is on a "Vacation" then I eat them up. I cook on the weekends and tommorrow I will be making Freezer Spaghetti sauce and probably be ordering Pizza for supper. I use tomatoes from the garden. I just freeze them after I clean them and cook them down into a sauce that is just killer. These whole frozen tomatoes are very easy to peel under hot/warm water--the skin just falls off. Sunday will be a mushroom pasta---yum. Eat on!!
  24. I would sort it as an MK. A later version imho. I am not an expert with names or MK marbles but @Melissa is for sure. Marble King marbles will show up plenty with blow holes. I do not know if Pelt is first or second regarding blowouts, CAC would be a close third imho. Nice find and a good ask. Marble--On!!
  25. Chad has the grit ot take on any ID. Our old friend Ron knew that @70% with marble ID's you were doing pretty well. Chad is right there for sure. Marble--On!!
