This is why we study marbles. I just opened this one today. It was sold as an Alley—I knew better. This one went for $10.50 including shipping. We used to call these “Millers”. This one is under 9/16” and over ½”. I have never seen one so small. Killer buy for the bottom feeder that I am. I just love this stuff!!! Marble—On!!

The early machine made marbles were competing with the earlier handmade marbles. The “agate” name that many marbles from the machine made era had was just a marketing thing trying to compete with the old era marbles that were actually agate/stone/clay. MFC, CAC, Peltier, Akro and others tried to copy what was once popular from overseas in the stone made or hand-mades and they succeeded. This is my best thought for an answer--- Marble—On!!

Vacor vs Peltier is the question--Peltier imho. Check the dark side for any AV or aventurine which will show up as little sparkles as you move the marble under direct light. Regardless of the maker—a very nice find!!! Marble—On!!

This one may be an Akro--Just sayin---- Marble--On!!

I collected one--or she collected me---That will do it!! Nice one Ric!! Marble--On!!

Welcome back and keep comin back!! Marble--On!!
