  1. The one on the right is a Vacor “Wicked Owl” imho—nice one!! The left one is Vacor—maybe a very nice “Polar Bear”. Nice marbles non-the less!! Marble—On!!
  2. No Uuugh from me--pretty cool imho. This one could be from many makers--MK included imho. Marble--On!!
  3. It is machine made, more than likely a "Popeye Patch". There are always two cutoffs in a machine made marble. This one just folded to make it look like one cutoff. Nice find--good research-- Marble--On!!
  4. These are corner boxes for a game. Chinese checkers more than likely imho. 60 marbles adds up here. I would have to have them in hand to determine the maker. The marbles came packed in these boxes as part of the game. There may have been two more boxes included with the game, one in each corner The game--name wise or manufacturer itself--I cannot determine. I feel pretty confident here with this one. I would "buy them now" @ $25—that is about it for me. I may find a home for them in the future—or not. Marble—On!!
  5. Not too shabby for a patch. This one is ¾” ---a hard find for me. Marble—On!!
  6. I researched the title--show us one so we know what you are talking about.----???? Not a big name guy here--- Marble--On!!
  7. Size? I agree x 3. Marble--On!!
  8. Size always matters my friend. They made a lot of sizes of nuts--big to small--nice nut though!! Your marble may be hand--gathered. Nice marble! Marble--On!!
  9. They are Jabo--all of them--sorry for freaking out--😁. Nice run of Jabo though!! Marble--On!!
  10. This explains alot Fire. "It Never Hurts to Help". Marble--On!!
  11. OK I am slapped here as well--this many --in one lot--Fire may be right! They are not "Corals". Marble--On!!
  12. I missed the "horse hair" Fire--good eye! Alley on the Ric marbles. Marble--On!!

  14. Leave it up to Al. Nice bag Al ! Marble--on!!
  15. I agree--very nice with crude seams--I love this type!! Marble--On!!
  16. I would sway away from CAC on both Just imho-- All opinions are welcomed and appreciated. Marble--On!!

  18. Ren and Stimpy! Nice marble Fire! Marble--On!!
  19. Champion?? And a Bump! Marble--On!!
  20. This one is small—a good tell. It is a hair under 9/16”. Gladly I did not buy it ---for it. It came with some rather nice 1 inch Akros. See the little white marks—I soaked this one in Lacquer thinner for awhile then scrubbed it with a toothbrush. I wanted it to be real but I always have to test my instincts. The white marks are the remnants of polishing compound. The thing was with this one—there were little white marks buried under the glass surface. The natural blow outs show a bit of weird wear around the edges—they should be smooth. It was at the very least- buffed, more than likely a great polish job. Imho—it was a great CAC marble—even with damage—now—it just sucks imho. Sling-shot ammo. ( I will save it for future reference) I just hate any polished machine made marbles—just really hate them. Marble—On!!
  21. Search boxes of Akro "Tricolor Agates". This is where I am coming from. Marble--On!!
  22. These "Newer MK" can fool any one--including me. This is what I think you are showing here. I appreciate any further opinions and respect them all. Marble--On!!
  23. This is a tuff one. The English Whisplers are coming into the USA more and more through online sales. The third image is a great one. It shows it to be 1/2 and 1/2 as far as coverage or cutlines go. Master patches are usually--usually 1/3 to 2/3--usually at least imho. The colors are not Akro imho. ( not really Master either) I have a hard time calling this one. Great images--nice marble as well! I will call this one English. I appreciate all opinions and respect them all. Marble--On!!
  24. Nice images--maybe too nice-- I will stick my neck out because I am a color guy before a cutline guy. The cutlines are Master--the colors are Akro. Akro---nice marble! I appreciate all opinions and welcome them. Marble--On!!
  25. akroorka

    Nope

    I would have snuck the middle jar out to the car--nuff said! Pretty funny schmoozer, been there--done that! Marble--On!!
