Your second image--once you blow it up, the grey ones are very nice--no clue! Marble--On!
-
Is there any AV present--check it close for sparkles. Marble--On!!
-
Nice marbles for sure-- I would sort them both as Akro. Nice ones--keepers--they all are. Marble--on!!
-
MC? Do you have a link to share? Thanks Alan. Marble--on!!

A year ago--really? I wish that I had a memory like that!! Whispler imho--. Marble--On!!

I will say this; you did a great job of sorting these. The first image I am quite sure are Vacor (from Mexico) “Black Panthers”. These will show up in a variety of colors with a black base. The second image shows some vintage marbles- the middle ones. The top left is an Akro Agate patch—the lower right is a Vitro Conqueror. The ones to the right may be Vacor or one of many other makers—the dark metallic ones. Keep them coming—I love to do ID’s---we all do!! All opinions are welcomed and appreciated. Marble—On!!

It is a funny thing for me--I really want to ID Ravenswood marbles--it might just be the name--or just a thing with me. I was in the basement today checking out my WVS and sizing them. 9/16" was my limit per @wvrons for a clue. Funny how a collector can pick these sizes from the rest and how you can get misdirected—. I had great fun today. No results---I am still a WVS and a Ravenswood seeker---never give up--- Marble—On!!

I have no name for it----maybe? Marble--On!!

Size matters. Marble-On!!

I get the Vitro thing--I really do! Do not count out Akro with this one. I appreciate all opinions. Marble--On!!
-
Cairo or Heaton would be my guess---guess in CAPITOL letters. I suck at WVS ID. All opinions are needed. Nice ones for sure!! Marble—On!!
-
Very nice marbles indeed--great find! Marble--On!!

I would sort the OP as Master Glass "Brushed Patches". The red ones and the blue ones are the true killers of this type. There always seems to be way more white/clear than colored ones. I have only seen them with a white brushed patch on them. Nice marbles! That left one looks like it may react to UV. Marble--On!!

Just some doing some sorting today--What? Let’s just sort this one as the company would—7/8”--mint—yes it is smaller but that is the way that they rolled. I love me a good Muddy--only "Lady-Tater" beats this name imho.( You have to give it up to the WV folks---“Lady Tater” is the tops in my book as far as names go—love it!) I posted some more images just for you lovers of all things overlooked. These may be the slugs of Peltiers—just pour a little salt on them--they will not disappear. I just get a kick out of them—Really get a kick. Muddy on!!!

This is an older Pelt "Bloodie". No opinions needed. Marble--On!!
-
They look pre-Jabo to me-- Champion is my call just because of the finish--almost metallic. I appreciate all opinions. Marble--On!!

-
Agreed--maybe older "Bloodies". Marble--On!!
-
This is a nice one! Marble--On!!
-
These are both Akro Corkscrews or meant to be corkscrews-- Nice ones! Marble--On!!
-
Lets not count out DAS, SMM, or some of the others that are starting to take on a newfound market. They are making some great ones--I just wish that I could keep up. Marble--On!!
-
Yes they did--very few. Try to find a 9/16" corkscrew and see how rare the peewees are. I wish that your was one--really I do. The colors are right for sure--the structure is wrong. Yours is a WVS of some sort imho.-it just wanted to be a "Better Marble"--😁. I want them all to be Akro--sadley, there were other makers as well--good thing for all of us or it would get a bit boring. I apreciate all opinions and welcome them all. Marble--On!!
-
The very sharp cutoff between the cream color and the green makes me think that this is just a weird Akro. I do not subscribe to the butt--crack thing—all makers had them. Marble—On!!

A peltier tan base with red and yellow ribbons?
akroorka replied to mibby wonka's topic in Marble I.D.'s
OK to add to the confusion—what if this one had some AV added in the red? I always try to help—😁. Marble—On!!
