I found it, I just had to do a repeat of one of my hair-brained searches on google. If I wrote them all down--well, no time for thatš. Maybe I should start a listš. https://marbleconnection.com/topic/27211-any-help-would-be-great/ The one that @Nantucketdink posted in the above link are the ones that I am talking about. "Aquarius Run Patches". I have never seen any for sale. Marble--On!!

I believe that these came in bigger sizes (1") and smaller as well. I have one that is out of round--bigger--13/16". I am not a big fan of out of round marbles. I have some research to do---Thanks Ric--Killer marbles for sure. Marble--On!!
-
That is a nice marble! Marble--On!!

Thanks Steph, I might just keep these awhile--I might be hooked. I am now on a hunt for "Blueboys"---love em! I read a post somewhere in the past about "Contract Run Patches" all I can remember is that @wvrons was fooled by them, comparing them to Vitros, and you stuck up for him. It was an older post as I remember--I lost itšØ, I think it may have been here, in The Marble Connection. Something to do with Jeff Theobold and a run after Dave McCullough left. Nice patches imho--I want some. Marble--On!!

Thanks Ron.

I have wanted some of these "Badger Run" Jaboās for yearsājust too expensive for meāI am a Badger after all, so I had to give a good try or few. I got lucky and pulled home a nice box full, one of the best wooden boxes ever made imho. If anyone can help with the reasons behind the name, I will appreciate it. Thanks and MarbleāOn!!

Without a doubt one of the very best Jabo Tribute marble runs. The āMegan Kasmarā run. My images do not do it justice. It is just a beautiful marble. MarbleāOn!!
-
Nice lot Bro---accidents do happen. Marble--On!!
-
That is a very nice display and it reminds me that I have a wall phone to rebuild---oops 15 years later. I will get it done--somedayš.

Very wool--I mean cool! My garage cat would love them--sadley---- my basement cat has passed along to the big wool marble world in heaven. Marble--On Kitty Boy!!
-
Yes MK Rainbows. My fave has alway been the "Girlscout"--green and yellow. Some may be newer and some may be older and I will let someone else describe the difference--I still stuggle a bit with that. Marble--On!!

Good eye Artš! I knew something was off a bit---very cool though. Great score Mojo!! Marble--On!! -
A Holiday shout out to our big brother Chad
akroorka replied to akroorka's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
You are the Rock that this ship anchors to Chad--well deserved. Marble-On Big Bro!! -
I am just thinking that perhaps bit of glass was included in the glaze--Crazy stuff--crazy mind--crazy marble. I agree on the clay or ceramic part for sure. Crazy---On!!
-
What is the chunky thing that I circled? It kinda looks like a chunk of glass. That is one strange marble--pretty cool. Marble--On!!
-
I am digging the new avatar as well. Uranium glass--On!!
-
I had to look at these a bit but I feel pretty confidant. Left to right. Akro Patch Akro Patch (look really close for some av in the black) Akro Corkscrew. Marble--On!!
-
You are right there. The left is a nice Peltier "Rainbo". The middle one is a newer MK "Rainbow". The right hand one may be a Champion---or an Alley Agate. More opinions are needed and appreciated. Nice job! Marble--On!
-
CAC "American Agate". A link below provides some info. https://www.marblecollecting.com/marble-reference/online-marble-id-guide/christensen-agate-co/ Marble--On!!

It is the season to recognize those who we all love. Chad has been the "Big Brother" of this forum for a long time. Letās show him our best and lift the spirits of our Big-Bro! Post what you have to the max. Happy Holidays Chad!!! MarbleāOn our marble collecting Friend!!
-
This one could be a Heaton or an Alox--or something completely different. I still suck at WVS ID. All opinions are needed. MarbleāOn!!
-
A WVS "Spam" would more than likely come from Hawaii. Hawaiians love their Spam. McDonalds even sells a Spam-burger out there in the 50th state. Welcome to all of you in the Islands!! MarbleāOn!!
-
You know Pelts Fire do not second guess yourself. It may be a "Hot Sauce and Mustard"(not a real name folks) but it is a Pelt. Nice one! Marble--On!!
-
That looks like a nice clean āJapanese Transitionalā to me. A pretty big one imho. Letās see what the other folks have to say. MarbleāOn!!
