  1. This is just a quick shot Gladys. Marble--On!!
  2. There is a name for these--a collector’s name. Here is another one @ 1”. If not for the name—“Corkscrew”, this would be considered as a “Swirl” Marble—On!!
  3. This baby is one inch--pretty cool! Marble--On!!

    ID Please

    Very cool, look it up for sure. A nice one for the "pocket". Marble--On!!
  5. Nice marble!! Marble--On!!
  6. Nice find--they are still out there!! Marble--On!!
  7. You may find this same box with other makers included. It is a "Jobber Box", or one company that purchased marbles from a variety of makers and sold them out right as their own brand. From who--I do not know. They usually show up with "Akro Milky Oxbloods". Marble—On!!
  8. Yes Welcome! Show us some more! Marble--On!!
  9. Too tuff to call. It may be a pelt. Marble--On!!
  10. That is a nice set of images and a great marble!! Marble--On!!
  11. The first one is a big "Bloodie". The "Mary" thing I do not get. The last image is just a great bunch. Marble--On!!
  12. The blue and yellow were errors--a whole bunch of them--someone was sleeping at the post. The rest were just--not caught or sorted imho. Marble--On!!
  13. Ric is right on as far as the collectors name goes. The "Popeye" boxes also came loaded with some top shelf Oxbloods. There are a variety of "Popeye" boxes. The more common and the less common. As far as the "Popeye" Patches go--Alan is right on as well. The colors shown in the OP are the ones that are more common and were "dug in vast quantities". @ $1 a piece--I do not agree--maybe $10. A big box full spread thorough the collecting community does not mean “common". The others colors do show up as patches—way more rare though. Red and yellow would be my second guess as far as more “common” goes. I have never seen a purple “Popeye patch”. Marble—On!!
  14. I am with Ric--no Vitro here! Nice marble! Marble--On!!
  15. Nice box!! This box was the very first box that I have ever purchased. Many moons ago. My wife though that I was nuts paying up at $100--I was am still am--. Marble--On!!
  16. So--- these were mixed nets? Marble--On!!
  17. Wow, those are killer patches. Do they have a name? Off to Hobby Lobby I go! Marble--On!!
  18. I placed a bid--just for you Fire--LOL. Marble--On!!
  19. CAC has "diaper folds"--no one else! Marble--On!!
  20. This one is obviously not polished. The one end does resemble one that has been polished though. Keep your eyes open and look at all of them to get a better idea of what is and what is not. Study them all!! Marble—On!!
  21. I agree. I search boxes and games everyday, I have not seen these----that I recall anyhow. Marble--On!!
