  1. Are marbles ever upside down? They are for mešŸ˜.
  2. @Ric and @cheeseknows these as well as anyone lets hope they respond. Marble--On!!
  3. They both look happy to me. The front seats did fold down into the back seats to make a bed--that is all that I will say--------I was a teenager back then--celibate. Marble--On!!
  4. Agreed Ric, as I recall, this is the color combo that I found them in. Marble--On!!
  5. LOL that is why Fire and I get along so well--It looks like my table. Sort on--when you feel like it! Marble--On!!
  6. Agreed I have seen a few of these also. I just figured that they were found on the beaches of Lake Michigan--Live and Learn! Marble--On!!
  7. I think that Ric has you covered with the Vitro ID. Nice job Ric! Marble--On!!
  8. Sorry, I was overcome with the tree reflections Cheese. I overlooked the size. I agree--Champ or Jabo? Marble--On!!
  9. Nice marble--Blue and white rocks! Marble--On!!
  10. The first image, on the upper left of the glower shows what may be "Feathering" in the base glass. I would not count out Peltier here. It could just be a reflection--oh well--I just felt like saying something--. Marble--On!!
  11. We all do--LOL. Marble--On!!
  12. Me too, Glas Murmeln? What is the size? Marble--On!!
  13. The colors remind me of this one. A 5/8" Alley. No ID from me. Marble--On!!

    Flinty

    Just because of the eyes--I would call the OP a White "Flintie". White ones are a hard find in my experience. The moonies/moons that I am familiar with are more of a swirl with hard to find cut marks, they glow "Opal" in hand in almost any sunlight. Just my humble opinion. I appreciate them all. A humble but beautiful marble! Love em! Marble--On!!
  15. I wonder too. I think that you did a great job of sorting these. I actually had to flip the image to get a better idea. I have shared it below. I do not see any Vacor in this bunch. Some may be domestic others may be foreign. Marbleā€”On!!
  16. In my mind and in my house, I call these "Woodies". One is opaque and one has a transparent base. I do not know if they meet the mark but they are mine and I will call them what I want to. Marble--On!!
  17. Goofy--you mean goofy as opposed to collecting marbles? I have collected "Curtain tie backs" for years. I wish that I could show you the whole image, I keep my passwords posted on it. I put them on an old rotted 3x3 mouse chewed window frame that I put a cork background on. Very cool little things--I have a bunch of them. (who does not love a Meadowlark ?) The car is a "Dinky" Made in England--I could care less. It was my first real drivable car. I got it from my older bro for $15--just what he payed for it--pretty cool. The post card is more accurate color wise. I had to stop and think about weird for awhile. We all collect weird stuff. Marble--On!!
  18. Respectā€”keep it going all. I just love this place. Marble-on!!
  19. Love it--keep them comin Joe. Marble--On!!
  20. I believe that "Twisters" are still being made today. If you find a good net full--$6.50 would be my limit on the Mega nets. I am a bottom feeder--enough said. Marble--On!!
  21. I see two seams. I checked out the listing for a better opinion for you. The seller appears to have the rest of the marbles for sale right on the money. I can agree with CAC on this one, it is either a weak CAC "Striped Transparent" or a CAC "Striped Swirl". Not a slag imho. Of course both are rare and for that priceā€”I would have to see it in hand. Nuff said. Marbleā€”On!!
  22. A weak one for sure. This reminds me of one that my Pa cut out of the yard for Christmas--why was I the only one that said it smelled like cat pee. A spruce of some sort--it did not last past the 26th. Still a nice marble and I am sure that it smells like glass (I can smell glass, especially Akro glass) Marble--On!!
  23. It was bound to happen--Of course I never really did "get it". Just another collector caught in the swamp of information. Marble--On!!
  24. Actually --in my mind, the only thing that I have called you is a "most welcome addition" to the MarbleConnection. Marble--On!!
  25. The last two images point me towards Master. Nice overhead shot of the cutlines. Masters will display a 2/3-1/3 construction often enough for me to be convinced of a trait. That being said--I am wearing sunglasses as I post (dilated from an eye appointment) It may be a Vitro. Marble--on!!
