  9. All of these patch types are just a notch above. I have always loved this type of marble--thanks for sharing them Joe2! Marble--On!!
  10. Here is a nice view of some emerging "Bloodroot". Here come the Ramps! Luv-em!
  11. X3--these will come in quite a variety of sizes and colors. They are all a nice find. Marble--On!!
  12. These are all averaging just under 7/8". They are Vacor from a Mexican net. Just Killer imho. Marble—On!!
  13. I am surprised that you have no comments yet on this marble. First of all, I am not a name guy. I know a bunch of names but I never researched them. I have had a whole bunch of Peltiers cross through my hands and I am always looking for one like yours. They are rare enough that I have never held one. I would have done the same thing--post it and ask for opinions. If that is a tiny white stripe in your images--it may be disqualified as a "clown". This one deserves some more input from the "Peltheads". I will "bump it up" and call all peltheads for some help. Marble--On!!
  14. I will not argue with a Pelt ID here--the name eludes me. Marble--On!!
  15. This is an Akro Oxblood patch with two colors. Oxblood patches are not too rare--yellow ones are imho. I have never seen one with two colors involved---just killer! Marble--On!!
  16. This is just my opinion-- The boxes are quite common “jobber” or resellers boxes. “Jobbers” are folks that buy marbles from a variety of makers and resell them as their own or under their own brand name. The ones that are marked "Victory Marbles" are an early fake--these were more than likely made by someone who intended to deceive collectors a long time gone. I suggest that they were made prior to the USA bicentennial (1976) to attract buyers. There have been a bunch of marbles found in boxes of this type but these are the most common to be found. RWB Vitro marbles. A fake box that is old enough to be a collectable. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble—On!
  17. Pelt--a citrus varient--imho. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Very cool!
  18. Nice job Al-! Marble--On!!
  19. I agree with Vacor--no name---yet. Marble--On!! Here we go---"VELOCIRAPTOR" Nice find! Marble--On!!
  20. It looks real to me--- This may be what Akro was trying to achieve with the uv patches of this type. Marble--On!!
  21. Nice Pelt---for sure! Ketchup-Catsup--whatever and Mustard---For that size? Just really nice. Killer! Marble--On!!
  22. This one is a nice big Peltier Rainbo. It may have been sold under the Peltier "Big Boy" Lable in groups of four I believe. Nice find! Marble--On!!
  23. Those pairs of character marbles in packaging appear to be “Qualatex”. Qualatex was the precursor to Mega Marbles in the USA as far as I know—therefore—Vacor. More opinions are needed here. Nice group! Marble--On!!
  24. As I understand it, this was the device that "funneled" the glass into the cutters. It would have been the last thing that the molten glass in the kiln saw before being cutoff onto the rollers. A solid flow came through this thing, was cutoff and then the glass glob hit the rollers--making a marble. Very cool!! Marble--On!!
