  1. These three are WVS imho. More images of the different sides may help in any ID. I will call the top one an------I need more images (akro) Marble--On!!
  2. I agree and I think that Melissa backed off in a good fashion. These can be found yet at a local rummage sale--imho. Marble--On!!
  3. I like your list Melissa, If I had a Guinea I would send it to you. To me these are just a great trade or sell to get more corkscrews and I have done plenty. I am sure that you will find one--they are not as rare as many think. There are plenty of "goldfish nets" on the Ebay. Marble--On!!
  4. I agree it is a very good example of a Heaton Oxblood. I would start at $30 on the Ebay and wait for the bidding to go to the end--this is a very-very nice one! The rest--uck--put them in a group and list them at $10 or best offer. Marble--On!!
  5. I better go through my near mints again---- Marble--On!! Good job !
  6. I have not posted this one in a bit. It was missing for a few weeks--my wife found it in the washing machine--at least it is clean😁 I was 7/8"🙃. Marble--On!!
  7. All Pelt attributes for sure--I hope that it comes home and we can see some more. It looks like the furnace was on it's last legs making this one--maybe why it is such a rare one. Marble--On!!
  8. The Batman has him by the throat----Yes? LOL
  9. He is a bank teller--yes?
  10. I think that it is a nice Rainbo Fire. Marble--On!!
  11. WVS imho Fire. Marble--On!!
  12. Rainbo works for me too. Cool stuff. Marble--On!!
  13. Pretty cool Fire--"one of a kind". Marble--On!!
  14. "Backlight them all" is one of my favorite sayings. Marble--On!!
  15. Nice score Mojo! That clay (china) is a killer size. Those velis are not too shabby either--very nice! Marble--On!!
  16. Grape nuts on ice cream yummmmm!
  17. No copy and paste here😁. I think that you have a Peltier slag there. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  18. Yes, I just copied and pasted😄. This is a machine made slag--there is no hand-gathering is obvious to me. I would sort it as an Akro. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

  20. I agree with Chad. There are stress cracks on this one that occured during the annealing process (the cooling down period after the marble was off the rollers). I have seen plenty of Heatons with this feature. Swirl not slag for sure! Marble--On!!
  21. I would not count it out, Akro made some oxblood that was more transparent than opaque CharlieT--a good observation for sure! Nice images mccracken, The fact that @Alan has a few like this makes me wonder. I am inspecting the damage on the marble, this usually will determine old vs newer. Newer glass in my experience is softer and more prone to little white hit marks. Jabo is a good example of these little whit hit marks. @Nantucketdink has a very good handle on Jabo marbles, he could clear this up for sure. There appear to be striated scratches not common to game play but more often found in a marble from a dig-site. @Steph may be right on the older WVS idea and @cheese and @Ric both have been on the digs and may offer an opinion. I see why mccracken though that it may be a Pelt—lots of bubbles. Experimetal marbles were not always cooked like production types and this may explain the “bubblicious” nature of this one. I am leaning towards a vintage dug marble, it may be from any number of dig sites imho. If @Fire1981 did not recognize it, then I doubt that it is a Pelt. We cannot ID them all—but we sure as heck can try. Thanks all!! Marble—On!!
