  1. Personally—I have not ever seen one over 11/16”. I believe that they came larger—maybe ¾”but that would be my limit with these---the “Silver Oxbloods”. The rest that you name-the “egg yolk ox”s would be up to an inch—rare but true imho. “Lemonades” are all over the place with sizes. The term “Lemonade” covers a bunch of different Akro marbles Imho. Some of the Jabo contract runs had marbles that closely resemble Akro “Eggyolk and Oxblood” marbles. Do the research before you buy—always. They –the Jabo are very nice---just not Akro. Marble—On!!
  2. I have tought of this many times--just for a display. Go for it! Marble--On!!
  3. I do not think that Akro made any of these gearshift knobs--ever. I am not a collector of these but I think that they were produced from many companies east of the Mississippi River. Marble—On!!
  4. The upper right may be a slag--just sayin. Nice marbles! Marble--On!!
  5. The white reminds me of opal glass--hard to tell with the color that is swirled with it. This is a WVS imho--of some sort-- Marble--On!!

    Slag?

    Does CAC sound right here? I appreciate all opinions. Marble--On!!
  7. I see a possibilty of this one being from Illinois---or WV. I am not getting a Vacor vibe here--just me--. Marble--On!!
  8. I can not say that I have ever seen this one before. Either in images or in hand--it is a great marble--just great imho. I apears to have a "Muddie Base color". Backlight it, "Muddies" are as not opaque as they seem to be. Great marble--Thanks for sharing it. Marble--On!!
  9. Great stuff Al! Considering the way that I believe the "Romans" were--these were rejects--very cool indeed. Marble--On!!
  10. This is the way in todays world--They are collectable for sure. The history of these just adds value-I wish that I had some more--history. Marble--On!!
  11. Nice one--Vitro imho. Is this a peewee? Marble--On!!
  12. This is a Vitro imho--no name from me. Did I miss the size? Marble--On!!
  13. ummm!!!-------------yep! Size?? Marble--On!!

    ummmm--all are WVS imho--except for the lower right--a jabo imho All opinions are welcomed and appreciated. Marble--On!!
  17. The first may just be a Vacor the second one I would say Vitro. These are nice images--just hard to tell. Marble--On!!
  18. Ok Al, I appreciate your image. Not the same though--what is the history? Marble--On!! Any other thoughts?
  19. Nice stuff Joe2. We have all sorted marbles--Vacors are no different--they made some great ones---no doubt. Marble--On!!
  20. Always---always respect the home folks--get it right or walk out with nothing. Marble--On!!
  21. Good stuff Ron--I always ask before I pick up—big old potato fingers—they drop a lot of marbles. Have you ever been to a show without carpet? I wonder why—lol. Marble—On!!
  22. The colors and the fact that it has a tail to go with it----it is not quite as visible of a tail like many have but it is there. MFC all day long imho. Marble—On!!
