  1. "Knikker Zak" translates to "Marble Pouch". A nice gift from an overseas collector--I just love it!! I do collect pouches. Marble--On!!

  3. The OP is a WVS of some make or manner--no Vacor here imho. I looked hard because it reminded me of some Pelts that I have seen---nope. Marble--On!!
  4. This one is not worth the while for a Blocks auction my marble collecting friend--just sayin!! Marble--On!!
  5. Where is the rust? I have packed plenty of bearings back in the days--this one should have a flat side or two to it if it is a burnt bearing. To tell the truth--a great post and thread considering the object. Marble-On!!
  6. It seems to me that Ron, our treasured marble collecting friend---RIP, described seeing this process with either Vitro or Jabo marbles as they were being made. It involved a spray process once the marbles hit the rollers. I agree--hard to tell the difference between the ones that were made by a variety of companies. Marble--On!!

  18. Your top image has a “German Handmade” at the bottom. It is shown with a bunch of Vitro Agate “All Reds” and possibly a few newer Marble king patch and ribbon type. It is the same with the other images, minus the “German”. The bottom image shows A Vacor at the bottom of the pile. It is the only vacor that I see and it is more than likely a “Red Devil”. Mega purchased their marbles from Vacor—same thing really. Marble—On!!
