  1. Aldo vs Akro--love it-- no worry--we get it for sure. Aldo Agates--nice name for a dog---for sure! Come Aldo--Come-- Come--treat? My latest dog-- a little Pug, is named Obi--he just loves me--just loves me---too much sometimes❤️. Marble--On!!
  2. All are nice Pelts for sure--nice images as well!! Marble--On!!

    CAC?

    Size alway matters---always. This one does look like a MFC to me--even better than a CAC ( except for the yellow❤️.) when it comes to slags imho. Lets get the size and some more images--love it! Marble--On!!
  4. Well--it is a beauty no doubt. I cannot call the run or the age of this Jabo but I would love to have it in my collection. Imho it is a Jabo “Classic” or a Jabo made during production of millions of marbles that where intended for sale to the general public. @Nantucketdink will have more info for sure. I always respect his opinions regarding this type and more--- Marble—On!!
  5. Champion imho--nice find! This is a nice one for sure. I respect all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  6. Nope--probably Akro imho though. Marble--On!!
  7. These are a bit wierd--OK --I Areeeee--almost. Marble--On!!
  8. Nice marble! You are in the right era for sure--maybe earlier than MFC? Marble--On!!
  9. The first one looks like a Jabo to me The second--the twins--Vacor "Twister" imho. Marble--On!!
  10. This is a big one for sure--no Jabo--I had it in hand and traded it it with Fire. Just a very cool WVS of some make or model. I just love this stuff!! Marble--On!!
  11. Well--you have a grey background in your images show that throws this one off a bit. It does appear to have some nice clear glass in the Matrix imho—taking the background into consideration. Master Glass “Cats-Eye” is my thinking. Pretty nice one too! Nice colors!! Marble—On!!
  12. X3--bear in mind that in thirty years these will be very hard to find---keep them in good shape! Marble--On!!
  13. This is a big one and it appears to be out of round as well. My guess is a Jabo, not a contract but a production made marble--"Classic" @Nantucketdink may have a better opinion here. Marble--On!!
  14. X2--the"Coke" bottle Glass color comes from using recycled glass. The asian countries use this to this day. The older cats from the USA have a greater probablitity of have nice clear glass. Marble--On!!
  15. This is a weird and cool one--lets call in @Fire1981 for an as·sess·ment--it may be a Pelt "Rainbo". @Chad G. knows his "Rainbos" as well-lets knock on his door too. Marble--On!!
  16. Peltier "Bananas’" have some of the very best "Clear" glass that was ever produced. I will not call this one "Japanese" but I will call it "Asian" Marble--On!!
  17. Nice images--nothing special here, just a nice swirl that came from WV imho. Marble--On!!

    Need help

    These look "special" but they are not--a bunch of WVS companies produced marbles that look similar. I would call it a Champion--just becuase Champion does not get enough credit for the swirls that they produced. Nice marble--pretty common imho. Marble--On!!
  19. Nice images--for sure. I think that this one was intended to be a "swirl"--not a "slag". I think WVS not a Vacor imho. Nice find!! Marble--On!!
  20. I think that it is a Vitro--the colors give it away as far as I am concerned--it might have been intended to be a "Conqueror". Just my opinion here and I hope to see some more. Nice—weird one for sure!! Marble--On!!
  21. Ummmm--could be---- “Cornelians” were not all dug—many were though. If it is a “Cornelian” it would backlight as semi-transparent. Straight on, these type look opaque—even with direct lighting. The yellow streak does not throw me off here because the white in a “Cornelian” will show in this color because it is buried. White should show though in my humble experience with this type of Akro. Nice assessment Steph! Marble—On!!
  22. The black speck would not be anything to be worried about—common in all machine made marbles or hand gathered marbles. The thing is here that I see two colors light purple and white-vs a clear base.-This does not line up with what a slag is defined as. “One color on a clear/transparent base”. This one may be a slag—but I will call it a very nice swirl that looks like a slag—probably an Alley Agate swirl. You have a nice marble here. Marble –on!!
