Is that you Fire?

Very shabby--but not too shabby--love it! Marble-On!!

Nice scrape! Nice board--no idea! Marble--on!!

That green one on the top left may just get my attention.( first image) The rest look vintage to me. Marble--On!!

These are a nitch marble imho as far as WVS are considered. I would be hard pressed to pay that price for any of them---Cairo—“carroo”.(is that right?) This is just my opinion. All opinions are appreciated and welcomed. Marble—On!!

Been there--done that--still do it. Marble-on!!

I agree--very nice as well. Marble-on!!

It was mint in a box when we got it--I get a little carried away with the sink sprayer sometimes--old habits die hard. (memories of my older brother and I doing the dishes---together---😁)

Send me a link via “Personal Message”—or PM and I will take a look with my imaging software. I am still at 50-50 Akro vs Vitro on the OP. These Akro oxblood patches are all over the place with coverage, colors, sizes and just plain desirability. I just love them. Marble—On!!

I hope that you guys know each other. This was a bad response if you do not know Ric marblenewbie. It gives me and most--- a bad taste regardless. Lighten it up a bit--Please--- Marble--On!!

I agree with all of the bogus ghost marbles. Marble—On!!

Obviously someone loved this one, even more than you do. Nice story! Marble-On!!

Well said Jeb. I agree. Marble--On!!

Here is the thing Fire. If you and yours collect, you will find and keep what attracts you both to it. We always did it this way. The glass egg came long after the scale in this instance—it just fit when we found it and it was just one of those moments that for $2-$3 we agreed on where it should go. It has been on the counter top for so long—I cannot remember. It is just a cool thing within the memories of our collecting and fun times together, not worth a hill of beans—just cool stuff. (If I could just remember where it came from—my wife remembers this stuff—not me--- I am in charge of the more important stuff—such as finances and taking out the garbage---lol.---I do clean out the cat box---) Collect –On!!

I will not go 100%---never--well almost never😁. I will agree to a point. I collect Akro oxblood patches on a regular basis and pass on many Vitros that look similar. The Akro "oxblood patches" had a variety of colors involved and depths of color in the oxblood. This has been fun Melissa. I wish that you could get some better images. Marble--On!!

Agreed Veli made some great ones. Nice box Chad!! I get them--"velis" when I can. Marble--On!!

X3 all Akro imho. Marble--On!!

Size does matter when trying to get an ID. Champion and Ravenswood made a bunch of this type along with a few other makers. Marble--On!!

Lots of folks collect "Cats Eyes". You do not sound like a freak to me--unless I am a freak as well😁. I happen to like the Master Glass cats and the Bogard Cats. They may be ugly but I just like them. There is always a jewel to be found. Collect what you like--I do! Marble--On!

I agree with Ric. I would not be surprised to see some transparent clear glass in a "swee'pea". Post it with some nice images--I look forward to it. Marble--On!!

There is no "clumsy" here at the "Marble Connection". Just learning, we all learn every day here—no matter the experience or length of collecting time behind our belts or suspenders. Keep the embarrassments in check, keep posting, deal with some humiliation, and of course--- Marble--On!!

I like Akro “Flinties”, “Bricks” of any type and Akro “Cornelians”. Not in order –just as I find them. A good brick is just a great find—educate yourself—many have been ground and polished in todays world. I am hard pressed to not buy/bid on any them when I see them, all of them. Of course if a good corkscrew passes my way-----or a Vacor Atmosphere---- Marble—On!!

I agree with all ghost ID's😁. Marble--On!!

No idea on which run. I narrowed this one down to only Jabo--it took a while. I am always open to opinions. My mind is wide and full of wonder. Marble--On!!

Enlighten us. There are a few Vitro Patch types that look an awful lot like common Akro Ox patches. Take a closer look at this one imho. Marble--on!!
