I believe in the old collectors saying”if you have never seen it before –buy it”. I collect marble pouches and have never seen anything close to this before, never with a clasp at the top or the images that I describe. I believe that there may be an African American boy in the image as well, at least one maybe two—cool image/print for sure—very rare. I mean no disrespect in my terminology and I believe that this is a respectful term and use it as such. Tell me if you have ever seen such a thing and I will surely appreciate it. Marble—On!!

Hey, I just got some more today-- I do not expect that you thought that you would see these marbles on a vintage marble experience like The Marble Connection, the oldest marble board in existence. Why Not? Collect what you like. Like what you collect. They are marbles and they have a provenance. I just fell in love with these little buggers from Vacor and I do collect them, especially in original packaging. I have a few more to get but that is collecting. Low end or high end—collect them if they make you happy. These make me happy! Marble—On!!

This is probably before my time--everyone loves a Hero--even in black and white.

Well, I got a big image of it up on the screen, backed up a bit and there it was. Jabo Classic. Marble--On!!

I will PM you--Thanks

I will just say why not Jabo and leave it there. Marble--On!

I would like to see more of that football shaped one--tis the season! Marble--On!!

As I recall the original Superman TV show was in Black and White for a few shows--Maybe it was just our TV😁. Marble--On!!

Beauty is in the eye of the person holding the marble. I agree that a nice clear base with just white can be stunning. Marble on and keep what is pretty for sure!!

I agree with William, more shots needed. Here and here. Marble--On!!

Nice marble that Frosted Vacor Michaelangelo, I like em too. My favorite marbles are usually Akro Agates but today I was gazing into a Peltier "Muddy". So for right now, that is my favorite--until I pick up the next one😁. Marble--On!!

X2 Marble--On!!

Killer set Carowill--what nice deep black in those two. Marble--On!!

OOps almost at once Ric--Good point!

I would sort this one as an Akro. The amount of white involved with these really makes them look different from one another--green-wise; some look quite dark compared to yours. Nice marble-- Marble--On!!

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 that🕛. Maybe I should start a list😁. 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 it💨, 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.

Here is an image that shows some facets. Marble--On!!

I have wanted some of these "Badger Run" Jabo’s for years—just too expensive for me—I 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 Marble—On!!

Without a doubt one of the very best Jabo Tribute marble runs. The “Megan Kasmar” run. My images do not do it justice. It is just a beautiful marble. Marble—On!!

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--someday😁.
