akroorka

Yep!!! The akroorka picked this one up and said---Chinese---oops, double check—lol. It did come with a bunch of contemps----you never know until you check them---closely. As always---- Marble—on!!

Tomorrow will be 45 years that my wife has put up with me. I hope that I remember in the morning tomorrow. This is a great trio of Akro that I recently found on E-bay. Two short of a row---I will continue the search, ------ She will too, of that I am sure---Do your best and of course---- Marble—On!!

Very Exotic Fire!!! Nice images as well!!! I really do appreciate all opinions----Really I do--- Marble--on!!

Great one Fire! I do not see the green--so "Rebel" is a chance. Any Pelt peewee is a bonus--- Marble--On!!

What is this? All this attention for a Bennington? Absolutely right—I love-em. This one is just under 1 ¼”—a biggie. It may have been made in Germany---or not—. Collect what you like and ---- Marble---On!!

Our old friend Ron was into these things. Search for his posts and get some more info. This one looks pretty good to me at least. Marble--On!!

It is just the lighting--we can all agree to disagree. I appreciate all opinions. Marble--On!!

I am on board with Ric here. This could be one of many----(maybe a Vitro) I appreciate all opinions and respect them all. Marble--On!!

No doubt Annie--- Marble--On!!

Nice find—drool material for sure. The first image ----the upper right one—Is that a Sparkler?? Marble—On!!

I had some fun shooting images today. This is a three inch clear glass orb---very cool. There are a few WVS included along with a few Wisconsin, hard to grow during a drought, plants as well. Marble—On!!

Welcome Bruce. I agree --machine made. If that penny is a 1954--around the same age imho. Marble--On!!

Nice images. I would call this one a slag--probably an Akro. Nice marble! Marble--On!!

I can respect that and I respect the way that you have replied to some negativity. You have kept your cool and I for one, appreciate it. Marble--On!!

It is a Carnelian Oxblood--nice marble! I would have to do some digging to find one. Mine are all beat up. I do not believe that they glow Fire. I apppreciate all opinions on this one. Marble--On!!

This is why we collect Animal Annie. It is beautiful for sure! If you like them--collect them--enough said. Marble--On!!

@Ric may have some ideas here. I hope that he chimes in. Marble--On!!

Pelt Tomato marbles. Here is the crop and the seed--LOL. Marble--On!!

These patches are hard to find at 3/4". Most of them seem to be 9/16"( or under) or around 7/8" to one inch. 5/8" are not an easy find----believe it or not. I have hunted these for years for 5/8" marbles--I still need some. Nice ones--they came in a variety of colors and a variety of fill with the oxblood, the blue and ox appear to be the most common--to me at least. Marble--On!!

Hang in there Annie--you will get it figured out--I am sure of it. I cannot wait to see it--Patience my friend---and by the way--- Welcome!! Marble--On!!

Pretty nice my fellow marble collector---- Marble--On!!

Trust--enough said. Good luck and continue to grow your reputation. I wish you well. Marble--On!!

Open them or not--I would open them. They are very cool.----They are very cool to hold and look at once they are cleaned. Marble--On!!
