akroorka

3-3/4" of rain last night, lost power @1AM. Tornado spotted just south of us and the sirens were blaring. It was so dry before that the the sump pump has not run--yet. My rainwater collection system for the garden was depleted--not anymore! I can hold around 900 gallons and it fills up fast with that amount of rain.

X3 nice one at that. Marble--On!!

Welcome Zima Blue and keep them coming. We all just love this stuff! Marble--On!!

I think that I would sort this little gem as an Akro. Cool Marble! Marble—On!!

Hello Leigh, According to Google, 13.9MM is 0.5472441 inches. A peewee is considered so when it is ½” or less. It sure looks like a Pelt to me though. Nice one! Marble—On!!

Happy Birthday for sure and many happy returns. Marble On!!

I believe that the middle one is an Akro corkscrew, not real corky though. Marble--On!!

The third one is an Akro Carnelian, these are usually more of a swirl than a corkscrew but they do show up corky. Nice marble! Marble--On!!

There is nothing to hate there. Hand-mades in a net? Different for sure and kinda cool in their own way. A first see for me. China? Thanks for showing them and, Marble—On!!

I agree but this one looks veneered again, yellow over white---Vitro is my opinion. More opinions are always welcomed and appreciated. Marble--On!!

Great stuff that we all try to apply here at the MarbleConnection. Keep posting and keep coming back! We all love this stuff. Marble--On!!

Notice the "one way" sign---I know where it points--for him at least. Nuff said! Lets just Marble--On!!

Size matters and I am guessing that it is 11/16". That is a Champion swirl imho. Any further opinions are welcomed, needed and appreciated. Marble--On!!

These are new to me today, I just got them in the mail. All 5/8”-11/16”. A really nice score for me. The first image shows what I believe to be “Ringers” and they are harder to find (for me at least) than Popeyes. The second image shows Flinties and you all know that I just love-em. There are few rare ones for me, a white one and a yellow one. The next image shows the rest and who can resist a nice light blue snake. The other two are just, well corkscrews and who can resist a nice cork? One does glow like the dickens—love that! They are still out there. Marble—On!!

Is this how some of the Jabo "Contract Runs" got the pink in them? Cool stuff! Marble--On!!

Yes, a hardy welcome to you as well TravelersMibs. That is a nice group of marbles, the blue in them is really nice in the sunlight. Marble--On!!

In my house the marbles are mine the Akro Ware is my wifes, just to make that quite clear😁 We share though.. Marble--On!!

Here is another one Chad, No marks but Akro just the same. Westite made one as well (no darts) here is a link. https://magwv.pastperfectonline.com/webobject/C1F3D992-1E18-4C3C-8A83-244927259182 Marble—On!!

I do not agree with MK---no way imho! Get the popcorn out. Maybe a Vitro---or a Pelt, or I may be wrong and it may be an Akro As aways, all opinions are more than welcomed and needed. I just love this stuff!!! Tell us all what you may think, all of you!! Marble-On!!

The finish on this marble points towards Jabo for me. Marble On!!

That is a nice looking marble for 5/8", I thought that it was bigger until I went back and did some reading😁. Marble--On!!

Another slag vs swirl imho. I think that this one came from a company more well known for making swirls, it does look slaggy though. That lighter green pushes me that way. Marble—On!!

Ooooh that is a pretty marble. It looks like the Yellow is veneered over a white base so even though I want it to be an Akro I will slide aside on this one and wait for more opinions. Marble—On!!

Hello Boris64, If you are asking about this one we will need a few more images, clearer and closer. Thanks and Marble--On!!

an Akro corkscrew that did its own thing imho. It may be called A “Life Saver”?? More opinions are always welcomed and needed. Marble—On!!
