  1. 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 itšŸ’Ø, 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!!
  2. Here is an image that shows some facets. Marble--On!!
  3. 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!!
  4. Without a doubt one of the very best Jabo Tribute marble runs. The ā€œMegan Kasmarā€ run. My images do not do it justice. It is just a beautiful marble. Marble—On!!
  5. Nice lot Bro---accidents do happen. Marble--On!!
  6. 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😁.
  7. Very wool--I mean cool! My garage cat would love them--sadley---- my basement cat has passed along to the big wool marble world in heaven. Marble--On Kitty Boy!!
  8. Yes MK Rainbows. My fave has alway been the "Girlscout"--green and yellow. Some may be newer and some may be older and I will let someone else describe the difference--I still stuggle a bit with that. Marble--On!!
  9. Good eye Art😁! I knew something was off a bit---very cool though. Great score Mojo!! Marble--On!!
  10. You are the Rock that this ship anchors to Chad--well deserved. Marble-On Big Bro!!
  11. I am just thinking that perhaps bit of glass was included in the glaze--Crazy stuff--crazy mind--crazy marble. I agree on the clay or ceramic part for sure. Crazy---On!!
  12. What is the chunky thing that I circled? It kinda looks like a chunk of glass. That is one strange marble--pretty cool. Marble--On!!
  13. I am digging the new avatar as well. Uranium glass--On!!
  14. I had to look at these a bit but I feel pretty confidant. Left to right. Akro Patch Akro Patch (look really close for some av in the black) Akro Corkscrew. Marble--On!!
  15. You are right there. The left is a nice Peltier "Rainbo". The middle one is a newer MK "Rainbow". The right hand one may be a Champion---or an Alley Agate. More opinions are needed and appreciated. Nice job! Marble--On!

    CAC "American Agate". A link below provides some info. https://www.marblecollecting.com/marble-reference/online-marble-id-guide/christensen-agate-co/ Marble--On!!
  17. It is the season to recognize those who we all love. Chad has been the "Big Brother" of this forum for a long time. Let’s show him our best and lift the spirits of our Big-Bro! Post what you have to the max. Happy Holidays Chad!!! Marble—On our marble collecting Friend!!

    WVS 2

    This one could be a Heaton or an Alox--or something completely different. I still suck at WVS ID. All opinions are needed. Marble—On!!

    ?????

    A WVS "Spam" would more than likely come from Hawaii. Hawaiians love their Spam. McDonalds even sells a Spam-burger out there in the 50th state. Welcome to all of you in the Islands!! Marble—On!!
  20. You know Pelts Fire do not second guess yourself. It may be a "Hot Sauce and Mustard"(not a real name folks) but it is a Pelt. Nice one! Marble--On!!

    That looks like a nice clean ā€œJapanese Transitionalā€ to me. A pretty big one imho. Let’s see what the other folks have to say. Marble—On!!
  22. Nice Pelt!--No doubt! Marble--On!!

    ?????

    Maybe a "Bacon" with a bit of egg-white on the side--just sayin!! I dig the yolk--where is the yolk?? And the buttered toast? Just kidding--Close to a "bacon"--not enough fat IMHO---and I will leave that to the WVS folks. Marble--On!!

    I think that you did well Scooter. The iridescent marbles are a hard thing to get an image of--maybe Vacor should hire you😁. Marble--On!!
