  1. Master sounds right here. Marble--On!!
  2. These are Vacor imho. Compare them to "Fairy" by Vacor and see what you think. Marble--On!!
  3. I agree, Hurricanes also show up as a "frosted type". Names are names but these would all be considered as Hurricanes imho. I do not remember any that had an iridescent finish. There may be some--I just have not seen any. Marble--On!!
  4. I agree with Vacor here. Marble--On!!
  5. I agree with Akro here. Marble--On!!
  6. Very cool indeed. I agree with CAC here. Nice find! Marble--On!!
  7. It is a weird one but I think that it is a Jabo classic. More opinions are needed and appreciated here. Marble--On!!
  8. These trades/offers should be done via a Personal Message (PM) Wolf. Step back in line and be rewarded. Marble--On!! Nice group here stonehenge! The "Caligriphy" is just awesome. Marble--On!!
  9. This is a great thread by Chad. No not be ashamed here--your best is your best and we all appreciate that here. Another one of my faves is posted below. Not quite done--it just takes time and patience. Marble--On!
  10. Thanks Fire, To you, and all of you do that do the job of putting out wild fires around the world! Marble--On!!

    ??????

    This is a very fine example of a well cropped image---hint---hint to the rest of us here😁. I am guessing that the size is over 3/4" here. It does remind me of a Pelt Rainbo--a big one. If it is smaller--like say 5/8"--Akro imho. This one has a lot going on for a Patch type. Nice post! Marble--On!!
  13. Nice backlighting! Marble--On!!
  14. Crop your images more my marble collecting friend and do not repeat them. It would be a good thing to do. Marble--On!!
  15. These are my faves--for today at least. Yep! Akro Patches from Les Jones (rip)--killer marbles--just killer. Marble-On!!
  16. No--flames do what they want to do and some of the great ones intersect. Do some google research and be amazed at the combinations. I love em--just cannot afford them. Can you believe for an instant that most of the best CAC ones were found in a river? Hard to believe--just some distant rumors that I will pass along. I met the guy that found them--he would not give it up to me--but he was not offended for my asking for some reason? RIP. Marble--On!!
  17. This one is an Alley imho. Nice ask though--it is close but no cigar imho. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  18. These "Vitro Jewel Trays" can become quite addicting--watch yourself here--lol. To find one with Helmets is a rare thing but they do come with quite a variety of colors. Yours seems the right size for one. These were displayed at the 1939 Worlds Fair in New York and come marked as such--kinda rare and cool. They also come in a much larger size called a "Master Tray". These carry 7/8" marbles-verry cool. Marble--On!!
  19. It is a "Helmet"--pretty cool marbles these. Here is a "Vitro Jewel Tray" full of them--one of my coolest finds as far as Vitro go. Marble--On!!
  20. This one is a "Prize Name" made by Akro--one of my favorite corkscrew color combos. Nice find! Marble--On!
  21. A hard ID for anyone, let alone one that sucks at WVS ID. Many companies made red and white swirls--many--to many for me. This one takes an expert in wvs ID--I am not one but I would venture a guess at Alley Agate--no name from me. Marble--On!!
  22. No Oxblood here but worth asking for sure! Nice Akro Patch! Marble--On!!

    Jabo?

    Notice how the white kinda bleeds and fizzles out on the red--it get thinner on the edges with no real definition between the white and the red. Kinda ghostley with the white on the edges of the white..a good trait of a Vacor. I like these type for some reason and they came in many different shades of red (Dark and deep to quite bright-red) and quite a few different names as well. Vacor keeps these coming--not too consistant though color wise. They are easy to mix up with some early akro. Marble--On!!
  24. Start with size here--then research wvs imho. Marble--On!!

    Jabo?

    I would lean towards a Vacor here. Maybe a "Rooster"? Marble--On!!
