  1. I have about 20-30 boxes in the process right now. One at a time--get bored and try the next. You know--"Idle Hands are the Darksides Workshop". I prefer the Lightside. Marble--On!!
  2. Well I don't Steph----give it up. Master Made "Meteor" imho. The green color is pretty deep it may be an Akro "Moss Agate". I know how these bubbles show up under light. Marble--On!!
  3. Nice looking cat! What size is it? Marble--On!!
  4. Yes--Centipede, A nice big one. Older looking glass in a newer marble---love it--a nice marble! Marble--On!!
  5. Yes, The muted red spells this one out--It is a very nice one!! Very nice!!! Marble--On!!
  6. Excellent Idea!! The duh is on me—I was in the process of adding the size to my post when you posted. I know that you are new and I have to make adjustments as necessary—my bad—not yours. Most of the older boxes with a variety of makers will post the numbered size vs. the fraction. This is good knowledge to have because usually the bigger the better. The sizes were pretty consistant with all of the older sellers--(as far as I remem😴ber) No one that I know of sells them this way (I kinda wish they would)—it is just the way that it was—back when. Marble—On!!
  7. Yes Jeremysvt, a nice one at that. All opinions are welcomed and appreciated. Marble--On!!
  8. Oops, number zero--so 5/8". Marble--On!!
  9. I remember reading that they were numbered as a result of a lawsuit by Peltier. There were some distributed without numbering before the lawsuit as I recall. Did they make any in yellow? The repos are very nice--and affordable I have #146 half filled with bottom finders. ( I have to start somewhere) Of course as always, correct me if my memory is shorting out again. Marble--On!!

    WVS ?

    It could be a Vacor "Tidal Wave" the "Liste" shows a few with some transparent streaking. Not a WVS imho. Marble—On!!
  11. "Backlight them all" and while you are at it hit it with some UV. It is a cool marble. Marble--On!!
  12. Nice group--even at😁 ten dollars. You did well. Marble--On!!
  13. No dumb questions imho. Here is a size list from an Akro Salesmans case (not mine) Marble--On!!
  14. I cannot recall seeing those 3 colors together in a Cat---Vacor might have made some though. Vacor mixed color cats come in a multitude of color combos. Marble--On!!
  15. Good to see you posting brother--eat those vitamins!! Marble--On!!
  16. A tad of Opal in that top one--Love it! Marble--On!!
  17. Well-The first image has a little s shaped cutoff and there do appear to be some dimples in the glass---the base has some translucency to it----But!!!
  18. Clear, well cropped images will help clear this one up Scooter. I know my Vacors and my Pelts--I looked at this one pretty hard with my image software---50-50 until I see better images. This is my best. Marble--On!!
  19. I love to log in and see that 38 folks were viewing this board at one time. Do not be shy, there is no judgment here. Ask or show us what you have and Marble—On!! It is free advice from some of the best!!
  20. This one is done. I may make some improvements with the marbles but I would prefer to keep the box as is. Enough is enough and you have to know when to back-off. The box was pretty rough and I did my best to get it back to square and plumb. The two middle rows were the hardest to find—try to find a white on black Akro cork—it sounds easy—not so. I had to back fill about 55% of the marbles and went with what I had received in the box. On to the next—I should have kept before and after images and the years involved. Oh well it took some time is all that I can say—What fun it was!! Marble—On!!
  21. Nice call Tommy--lets get on with it now😁. Marble--On!!
  22. My first thought was "Nice Champion" but I do suck at WVS IDs. Nice marble-- Marble--On!!
  23. I love them too Mojo--just love them. Nice marbles!! Marble--On!!
  24. That is some weird stuff to find in a machine made marble--very cool!! Marble--On!!
