  1. I am thinking Akro with this one--Nice marble! All opinions are appreciated and welcomed. Marble--On!!
  2. Ohhh, that is a very good blurry image. Master "Sunburst" Marble--On!!
  3. This is a weird but cool one one. I think cateye is a good ID--which maker??. Marble--On!!
  4. That is a nice lot of marbles. All the same colors for sure. I would venture to say that there are three different makes involved---well at least two. I am far from a WVS expert and these need further investigation from the masses. Marble--On!!
  5. I do not think that they are from the"same run". The last one is more than likely an Alley Agate. The first one could be one of many, maybe even a Champion?? All opinions are welcomed and needed. Marble--On!!
  6. The last image is not a USA made marble imho. If these came together in a bunch----well??? Nice find!! Marble--On!!
  7. I would consider this a rare Akro. PM me for an email address if you really want to know. Marble--On!!
  8. Master or Akro imho although Vitro is a good case for argument. We are all used to seeing or hearing that Master Made marbles are ā€œearth-tonedā€. This is not always the case. Master had some bright colors in their palette as well. The cutline’s look like classic Master but that does not mean that Akro did not produce ā€œpatchesā€ with similar cutline’s. It is not a Vitro imho but it sure has those colors----- I will call it a Master Made marble. This is a tuff one. Marble—On!!
  9. The hands crossed bottle is just killer. The stone with the included bone like structure is as well. Who cannot appreciate some dino-turds and petrified wood as well. You are in a great find William—keep diggin! Thanks for sharing all of your finds. Keep on keep-in on.
  10. This is just another cool corkscrew. Call it what you want to. Notice the spiral in the clear base. I could swear that Akro Agate had a machine running that they just threw colors into wishing for the best result. There are just too many to categorize. Another great cork!! Marble-On!!.
  11. It wants to be an Akro but I believe that it is an Alley Agate. All opinions are welcomed and needed. Marble—On!!
  12. Well—it is ā€œPeltier Tuesdayā€ and why not ask for a Peltier opinion?? These shots are under very intense light. In hand, under a very bright handheld torchlight, it is as black as black can be. I found this one while getting some others ready for ā€œPeltier Tuesdayā€ in my ā€œPelt stashā€. I still think, after all those years, that it may be a Pelt@ 9/16ā€. Give me your best shot!! ( it is not a Jabo—I refuse that from the startšŸ‘‡) Marble—On!!
  13. This one makes you think. Have you ever seen a ā€œFeatheredā€ ā€œClearieā€? The first image shows a backlit shot with flash. Notice the ā€œfeatheringā€ in the base glass which is almost pink with the backlight. I just wonder what was going on with the Pelts ā€œfeatheredā€ slag’s. The next two images are just shots of the same nicely ā€œfeatheredā€ ā€˜purpleā€ Pelt slag which is closer to 9/16ā€ than it is to 5/8ā€, it would have probably been sorted as 5/8ā€. ā€œBacklight them allā€ and of course---Pelt ā€œfeatheredā€ slag’s just rock! Sorry Fire—this one was not in the ā€œgrabā€. Marble—On!!
  14. I can see why---that is a great looking marble. Thanks for sharing it! Marble--On!!
  15. Some eye candy from the old country. What size is that big ā€œsparklerā€? Thanks for sharing these. Marble—On!!
  16. Nice find Mojo. I like the little dude on the bag. I would have cracked it open too. That marble in half tells the whole story---nice! Marble--On!!
  17. Nice deep/bright white--nice deep blue. It may take some time to research older European makers but this looks like a batch made marble (from a recipe--not cullet) Do your thing Mojo, you have the resources. Marble--On!!
  18. Thanks Nantucketdink, I had some doubts. Do you have any to share? I searched around and could not find any. Marble--On!!
  19. I do not think that it is a Pelt. Marble--On!!
  20. Very cool. I do not see many marbles with this much pink in them. Jabo made some----- Nice one whatever it is. Marble--On!!
  21. Vitro I think. Is the transparent base glass really tinted or is it colorless? Cool marble! Marble--On!!
  22. Slag. One of those that I would study to see if it is really red or orange ( they always turn out to be red) Probably an Akro. Marble--On!!
