  1. No doubt very cool! No name from me--blue base glass--ultra cool! A rare fine but still a Pelt imho--Rainbo. Marble--On!!
  2. @Steph posted some Anacortes Vitro lately. Check them out. Marble—On!!
  3. Wisconsin of course---😁. Marble--On!!
  4. I believe that you have more “Opals” than you think William. Each marble has to be backlit looking for a reddish/pinkish glow in the base glass. This will show up while backlighting them as you move the marble around over the light. Some are hard to ID—just get the base glass if you can and be rewarded. If yours is an “Opal” it is a very cool find—not really common imho. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble—On!!
  5. Here are some Vacor vs Akro. The left ones are Akro. Marble--On!!
  6. Ohhh- believe me--you have more than 6 Jabo in your collection. The Jabo “Factory Mades” (“Classics”) are like a little gnat that keeps folks amazed and confused—and bitten—all of us have been bitten by Jabo marbles for sure as far as ID goes. The Vitro from the times in the state of Washington are very similar—just not the same—in a weird way. @Steph opened a bag of Anacortes Washington Vitro—so did I—several-- just to get the jest of them all. Steph thought that it may naughty—not me—I just want to Marble—On!! The ID is the thing—sometimes a sacrifice is needed/warranted. Do what you must but keep on in the search and of course--- Marble—On!!
  7. Nice Pelt Boris64! Marble--On!!
  8. I can see why the purple one was ID'd as a Pelt--the tongue. This one needs more images but I would not doubt that it is a weird Rainbo. The grey AV patch needs some more images as well. My eye went right to the slags nice group! Marble--On!!
  9. I like these too-the egg yolk yellow and the red along with the green base and the white--not so rare but very cool. Keep them coming William! I just love this stuff! Marble--On!!
  10. X2--that was my first impression. Marble--On!!
  11. Nice looker--all of the above could be true for sure. I will lean towards Akro here because of image #1. It looks like a corkscrew that did not cooperate. Very cool find indeed! Marble--On!!
  12. Nice marble!--Later imho. All opinions are appreciated and welcomed. Marble--On!!
  13. Just a bit of advice. The name “Imperial” was a conglomerate on the west coast of the USA. They never made their own marbles. They did market marbles--from all over the Asian countries--many of them--just many-many from different machines and different companies. A group of these may be from the same manufacturer —not always imho. The larger ones do appear to be a larger Imperial types—very cool imho. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble—On!!
  14. This is an Alley--I think that I may have traded it away--so what? It is still a great marble. Marble--On!!
  15. Great stuff for sure! Marble--On!!
  16. I search for marble games--this is a first for me. Nice find! (Thanks Mom) Marble--On!!
  17. Image one. I see the left one as a Brick--I cannot see the green thing here. The middle one may be a MFC--not too sure. The last is a slag--more images are needed of all. I apreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  18. I have had plenty of bad shrimp days my friend. Marble--On!!
  19. Right or wrong--always fun for sure! Marble--On!!
  20. Hey Ric, The top image--the right hand one is probably an Akro--"CORNelian". They are well known for showing little white. Blast it with some backlighting--it should be semi Opaque. The red color differentiates this one from a "Cranberry". Cranberries are much darker—almost a dark red and dark purple mixed. Cornelians actually were a production marble and you can search for boxes of these. The Cranberries were not a production marble as far as I can remember--they were all dug. These were called bricks back in the day—no oxblood though. The Cornelians were also called bricks—no oxblood in these either. This was the way— Marble—On!!
