  1. These "Messy" Pelts can be some of the coolest to own. Nice marbles! Marble--On!!
  2. First of all--I suck at WVS ID----but----😁. The second from the left does remind me of a Ravenswood. I appreciate all opinions and respect them all !!! Marble--On!!
  3. Akro----nice one!! Marble--On!!
  4. Ride on--good observation! Marble--On!!
  5. Dave? Is there a Dave registered on this board? Sorry man—no disrespect to you whatsoever---you are just not here!!! Marble—On!!
  6. I will answer the OP question--yes. Who made them?--I do not know. I would call them slags however--just a weird cool group. Marble--On!!
  7. I love the name--Dave--Dave--Dave--Daves not here--LOL. Welcome "davesnothere" keep on coming back and sharing what you have to shows us. There really are no boring marbles--just a few great ones that we all wish that we had---the search continues😁. (If I lost you all--Cheech and Chong from years past---very funny.) Your marbles look like a newer version of Marble Kings--not the latest--just a newer than the oldest. I appreciate all opinions and look forward to them all. Marble--On!!!
  8. There are a lot of marbles made by a variety of companies with bubbles in the matrix. Peltier is known for them. When the Japenese/ asian marble makers invaded the USA markets they were using recycled glass in the clear matrix. This explains the lack of crystal clear glass which is a batch recipe(made from a glass recipe), or very fine cullet glass that was purchased by marble makers in the USA from a variety of other glass makers. Marble—On!!
  9. Your first image shows what may be a "coke bottle" colored glass. This is a tip-off for asian made marbles. Hope this helps. Marble--On!!
  10. I think that you fell into a bunch of European machine made marbles. Nice group! Marble--On!!
  11. These are machine made marbles Edward--no canes invloved here. The top image shows a nice one--European I think. Marble--On!!
  12. These could be European Edward. Size always matters in marble ID’s. Also known as ā€œEuropean Sparklersā€ or ā€œFrench Sparklersā€. Lets see what some other folks have to say. All opinions are appreciated and welcomed. Marble—On!!
  13. This is not a "Furnace". It is a WVS that needs more opinions. Marble--On!!
  14. You pulled an Art Fire😁. That size and the depth of the folds??? I will call it a Ravenswood until the Ravens swoop down and call it different. I really do suck at WVS ID. Marble--On!!
  15. only from Fire--Love it. Marble--On!!
  16. Nice one--the green is very nice! Nice images as well!! Marble--On!!
  17. Agreed--Lets hear some more. Marble--on!!
  18. Who would challenge that statement? Not me--good eye cheese! Marble--On!!
  19. Cats are still a hard ID for me---I still try and I do stick my neck out once in awhile. The way that the vanes are seperated in the middle would point me towards Heaton USA---or a variety of asian mades. I will lean more towards Asian made here because the Heatons that I have carry a deeper orange on the outer rim of the veins. Vacor does not count in here imho--Vacor makes some of the most colorful/best cats ever made. I appreciate all opinions and respect them all. Marble--On!!
  20. Nice find! They come very big and they come very small and everything in between. Catch them when you can! Marble--On!!
  21. This one is a Vacor my marble collecting friend. It is more than likely a "Black Panther". Marble—On!!

    Ppp?

    Times two with Chicago---nice marbles!! Marble--On!!
  23. I am right there with Al. Pelt Bananas can get a bit weird. These are out of a larger bag and I am using lower light to show what we will all agree on, crystal clear base glass and very few bubbles as opposed to most Peltiers or any ā€œcat eyesā€ for that matter—some of the nicest crystal glass found in production type marbles ever. Those transparent green ones are a hard ID as they look very close to some Asian made. (How did that Muddy get into the image? ---yep, the addiction continues, this is a new one) Marble—On!!
  24. Well worth the effort---for sure!! Nice marble Fire--good job Kimbernugs!! Marble--On!!
