  1. Yes a few--but the one that sticks out is the yellow and white on the left. There may be a "Blackie" involved as well. The front right also shows a Vitro--white-red-clear--probably a "Conqueror" of some sort. These that I id are all in the front of image #2 There are a few others involved in the back of the image. Ric knows his Vitro--I do too--just not the names. MK and Vitro are always a hard thing to pick apart—some-times. Ric is the go to here as far as I am considered. Keep on keepin on William--we all never get "it" for sure. Marble—On!!
  2. As "Gordan Ramsay" would say---"It's a Bloody Woodie". Nice marble! Nice Find! Brilliant! Marble--On!!
  3. Any marble with obvious inclusions’/bubbles is/are appreciated by me and a few others including @Fire1981. Pretty cool imho. Marble—On!!
  4. I do pay up for these but--it is only money otherwise spent on marbles. Here is my last--one of two. Just killer! I just love wearing this stuff!! Marble--On!!
  5. Both my marble collecting friend! I had to search to ID them both--but imho--both the same. Marble--On!!
  6. On the Header---- Those little cats that look like a dog just blow me away. A future t-shirt perhaps? If any one has a great image of the little cat/dog please post it. I just love this stuff!! Marble--On!!
  7. I wish that @Melissa or @Joe2 would chime in here. this may be a rare marble. These two know their stuff for sure. Marble--On!!
  8. Sorry for the late response Ric. I have been practicing with Sciatica lately. ( it does sound like a rock band name) No complaints here—I had just a blast playing High school football—a long-long time ago. Yes I agree with the ID—“Melon Ball”. Still a cool find from years ago. Marble—On--- and Thanks for the correction.
  9. Vacor "Duke"--there has to be another name for them---??? Marble--On!!
  10. Just a very cool Akro Patch. Marble--On!!
  11. This is a great find--packed full of Akro . Only in my dreams 😍. Marble--On!!
  12. They are not "Furnace types" imho. Not all game marbles are created equal or solid in color. You may have some of those here. Some of these may be Champions--maybe all. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  13. Well, it appears to be handgathered. Same animal imho. Marble--On!!
  14. What Melissa says X2. Marble--On!!
  15. Not a corkscrew imho. Stiil might be a nice no white showing slag though. Marble--On!!
  16. The glass looks pretty clear. The older Asian market usually used recycled glass which gave the clear glass a ‘Coke Bottle” color of sorts. I thought that it may be a marble made for some manufacturing market at first but those usually show up with not so clear and slightly colored glass as well. “Cleary” is the best that I can come up with. Marble—On!!
  17. Corn Husk? Why do I just love them? So a Corn Husk just has one swirl right? Simple beauty. Marble--On!!
  18. Size alway matters! Ravenswood made more 9/16" marbles than any other company--this is the thing. @Ric is a good one to ID these and I will call him out here. Marble--On!!
  19. No Pelts here imho--both are "Allreds" from the Vitro plant. The one with the deep black is pretty cool! These are common but yours are stellar. Marble--On!!
  20. I just love these little Clearies Why--- because I did my due diligence searching “common lots”. I just love finding what should not be there. These two are just less than 5/8”, what a pair of beauties! Marble—On!!!
  21. Nice find davesnothere ! This one wants to be a slag for sure--WVS imho. Marble--On!!
  22. Nice find--I agree. Marble --On!!
  23. I think slag-like Ric--probably an Akro. Marble--On!!
  24. The salesmens cases that I have seen do not list anything under 9/16". That being said--the Popeye boxes that we are all familiar with did include one "peewee" patch. It was placed on top of the pouch in the original sale. I believe that it was called a swee-pea by collectors named after Popeyes little adopted son. If Akro made 9/16" marbles there are bound to be a few that are smaller, just a result of the marble making process. Of the older companies, Peltier is the only one that I know of that actually produced peewee marbles. Marble--On!!
