I do not cross paths with many of these so I thought I would share it today. Marble—On!!

Here is the thing with me and CAC marbles. I do not have many—30-40 maybe-- but I have researched the heck out of them—Alley vs CAC vs Akro etc etc and I know one when I find one. I found a “submarine” in the wild once and sold it quickly—lots of Corkscrew money there. (I should have kept an image) I treat them like “German Handmades” and never mind a little damage—let’s face it they are rare. Blow holes are common with these—almost like Pelts. I hope that some more are posted soon—I just luv-em—especially the “Electric Yellow Slags”. I will post some more “common” swirls soon. (No CAC are really common) Marble—On!!

Nice images! I will commit to the weird #4 as being an Akro Patch that was doubled with the red. I do not think that it was meant to be a corkscrew. This one is strange and cool. #2 and #3 may also be Akro--------#1—no clue from me. The very bright yellow at the bottom of #2 makes me lean towards Vitro a tad. All opinions are welcomed and needed. Marble—On!!

Who does not enjoy them? I never even thought about a foreign maker. That is why we ask—especially when locked in like a bird dog to one or the other. Is it a Pheasant or a Quail, the bird dog does not care, he/she just knows that it is a bird and that you want it flushed out. Ok it may be a Woodcock—love it either way. I have not hunted in years but I sure miss my bird dogs—one mind, one effort—a very pleasing meld of minds. Kind of like us here------- Marble—On!!

Here is a very well filled 35mm (1-3/8”) Vacor “Spaghetti/Streamer” Yellow and clear based. This one is—just killer. Just sorting and sharing today. Marble—On!!

The base glass is very clear, there are some reflections from my brass plumbing holder that shows a different hue. Marble--On!!

Ooops forgot to tell the size--5/8"

Here is a “burnt” Vacor—just sayin! Marble—On!!

Here are some more that I sorted just today—not too shabby one might say. Marble—On!!

Ohh you are fast Chad but I caught it. This is a Heinzer. Marble—On!!

Here is a nice pile of one inchers. Marble—On!!

My eyes are bleeding after checking this one out. My heart tells me it is a Sparkler; my eyes say it is a Sunburst. This is one that is splitting hairs but that is why we do what we do here. All opinions are welcomed and needed. Marble—On!!

I think that there is some AV in the black Chad--in the none-spit images. Fire??? Marble--On!!

I would say so--I like these better. Marble--On!!

Good eye! I think that perhaps you may have it. Marble--On!!

Was it the "watch it bub" guy or the helmets. As a Badger fan I would prefer it to be "Watch it Bub". Marble--On!!

Well--I was a football head long before I was a marblehead--go figure🤒. Marble--On!!

Wolverine? I always figured that they were named this because of the resemblance to Michigan’s football helmet—could be wrong. Nice marble Mojo!! Marble--On!!

That is a very cool marble Fire. The spit shine is pretty cool too--will you reveal you secret? (chicken spit?🙃) Marble--On!!

The pattern that I posted is a Sunburst pattern. I will bow out now and reveal the treasure. Fire, you are up next. Marble--On!!

Nope Nope

Not a Vitro Tommy. Take the last trian to --burg and I will meet you at the station. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcXpKiY2MXE

Those "Muddies" that the seller has attract me--no bids? I love me a good muddie!! Marble--On!! Oooops spoke too soon!!

It is kinda cool---for awhile anyhow. I will give this one up before noon tommorrow CST--then back to Fire who was MIA on the last one. 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀💀
