  1. Great images Melissa! Nice marbles as well!!😁. Marble--On!!
  2. Wow--a Vacor with metal? Very cool! Marble--On!!
  3. Glass weighs in at about 50% more than Plexiglass. I am afraid that the floor would buckle under 50% more. Just my humble opinion. Very cool! Marble--On!!
  4. We all started somewhere Kiwigal. I appreciate your images and look forward to what you have to share in the future. My first marble was not much better--I still have it! Marble--On!!
  5. I agree, next time lay it down next to the ruler with the graduations more evident. If I came across this one I would have no problem sorting it as a Master Made Marble. Marble--On!!
  6. Yep! If this one was clean I would call it a Jabo. It looks dug and as far as I know there are no dug Jabo yet. Cheese is right on, he has been there and done that--dig. Marble--On!!
  7. Nice marble! Nice Find!! I agree with Alley. More opinions are needed for sure. Marble--On!!
  8. I looked and looked at this one. This one is another good example of my study of Vacor marbles. I tried to make it a Vacor and it just did not add up. Imho this is a Vitroā€”ā€œAll-Redā€ coming in at 7/8ā€. Nice coverage for sure—a killer Vitro. I appreciate all opinions and wish to see some. I learn every day and I appreciate that from all that include themselves in the posts. Marble—On!!
  9. Thanks cheese, I have always thought of "House of Marbles" as a "Jobber" of those made by other companies. Live and learn—as always--- Marble—On!!
  10. This one is between 3/4ā€ and 7/8ā€. White with an amberish/greenish base glass. Yes, it is out of round—still pretty cool. I think that it must be an Alley Agate. I appreciate all opinions and look forward to them. Marble—On!!
  11. I love it--a new one for me! Great find! Marble--On!!
  12. I believe Fire. Been there done that--we are not alone. UFO -- on!!
  13. This marble measures in at 5/8ā€ right on the dot. It resembles a Ravenswood ā€œBlue Ravenā€ and a Ravenswood ā€œGreen Ravenā€. The trouble is—it has both green and blue involved along with a mix of both colors. My only hope is that these images show what I have here. I need some opinions for sure. If you need more info—just ask. Marble—On!!
  14. This looks like an Asian machine made marble that came from a house fire to me. I respect all opinions. Marble--On!!

  18. The top image--left to right. Jabo classic, Jabo classic, the right hand one maybe a Champion "Hot Wheel". More opinions are needed and welcomed. Marble--On!!
  19. I just love your avatar! There are actually a small group that collect "Beach glass" marbles. Try a search on google and be rewarded. Marble--On!!
  20. Nice marble--nice find! Marble--On!!
  21. Thanks cheese. Nice marble! This is the first that I have heard of them having a machine. I need more info and will appreciate anything that you have to add. Marble--On!!
  22. I agree Mojo--you did your part for sure. I appreciate you and what you have done for all of us that get a tad crazy with marbles. Marble--On my friend!!
  23. This is a nice blue "bennie" or "Bennigton". They are "glazed" clay marbles. In my world the bigger or smaller the better. They get quite big--over 1" and quite small--inder 1/2" The brown ones are more common in my experience followed by the blue ones. These come in a variety of colors that may be mixed. The little eyes or dots are a result of them being stacked together during the firing finish. The glaze kinda stuck to each other as they were packed into the kiln quite tightly. Marble--On!!
