This is a killer lot filled with very nice Akro marbles--I agree with Ric--more shots needed of the glower with the white stripe for sure.
Marble--On!!
Wow--you are on the ball!
This is just a killer marble--A WVS or West Virginia Swirl.
I just suck at WVS ID--some one here will get it nailed down.
The rest of your marbles in this post also deserve some great imaging as you have proved that you can do.
The red and white ones to the right of this one are more than likely Peltier "Rainbos". Post them together.
The rest may just be some very old slags. They deserve a seperate post for each.
Marble--On!!
AV is little sparkles in the glass that look to be metallic.
A very bright light will reveal them as you move the marble in your hand around and around.
It does appear to be a Peltier "Burnt Christmas Tree" to me. This style used to be called a "Miller Type".
Beat up yes--still a nice find. I am guessing 3/4" with this one.
Marble--On!!
This is a great group of marbles but I will admit that my eye went straight to this one.
Any time purple or pink hues are discovered it makes collectors wobble a bit.
More images are needed here--the circled one.
Marble--On!!
Great post Illhavethat1!
I would love to see some more of these used in specific ways. Show us what you have and be inspired by what you see.
Speaking of claw feet!
I could not pass on this one. The Ebay seller was smart enough to hook me into it calling it a marble holder he/she got me.
I have no idea what the original purpose was.
It has a kind of bisque ware feel to it. It is finished with my biggest corkscrew @ 1-3/8āāWhat else .
MarbleāOn!!
Agreed Ric--it reminds me of lead.
Sizes always matter with marble Idās.
The penny and nickel work wellāa calipers does the trick though. Get a plastic one from Amazon or Ebay and take a shot with them or just measure and list the measurement in inches please---Fractions and MM take too much time to cross reference for a lot of folks that would otherwise give you an ID.
The stone ones are a hard ID for almost everyone. They are collectable as a display item for many folksācollected by very few marble collectors.
The striped one on the top right may need more imagesāwait for more responses though.
The āGermansāāthe two lower left may need more images as wellāwait for more responses though.
I am a machine made guy.
MarbleāOn!!
I agree with Ric--but I always guess at WVS.
It may be one from many makers.
Champion and Ravenswood are in my little WVS pee brain with this one.
All opinions are needed when I try to put an ID on a WVS.
Marble--On!!
Chad is right on.
Many makers made these types.
Most game marbles are solid opaque--some are not.
Blue and Blue/White marbles always catch my eye.
Marble--On!!
Great marbles Joe2!
You ended with my favorite one--Just a killer patch type.
Just a tip for the newbies, that one looks like it has Master cutlines--follow the cutline with the eyelashes in the last image--not the color.
Marble--On!!
