  1. Hey Mojo, I believe that the top one and the bottom one are both Veiligglas. I have an image that I borrowed someplace on the web that I use for ID on them, I will share it with you below. Both of yours are in there. The middle one is the hard one imho. I see what you mean about Jabo though. More opinions are always welcomed and needed. Marble—On!!
  2. That is a very nice marble--Thanks for sharing it. Marble--On!!
  3. I have seen the Op with large yellow zig zaggy stitches on the edges in Peltier Boxes---just sayin!! Marble--On!!
  4. LOL-----I Just missed. The "O Boy" box is not present but it does look real, notice the stains from the Akro box under the top (two of them). That could be Chad on the cover, maybe a West-Coast version. Chads neck of the woods anyhow. These also came with traditional ties and real hankerchiefs in the pocket. A few other alterations as well. Quite the proud and handsome dude for the money shot! I Must Say😁! Marble--On!!---as always!!
  5. German "Striped Opaque"( I just made that up, never heard of one). Marble--On!!
  6. I ran out of time to get a new image, this one is pretty new. Bubble on!!
  7. I think Chad has it--it is a nice marble!! Thanks for the name Chad, I can see it named that but I have already forgotten it. I have to go back in posts to remember your name. I look up the avatar😁. Marble--on!!
  8. I will try to dive deeper into that green ringed one for sure---just killer. I just love bubbles! Here come the Pelts!! Marble--On!!
  9. I start with boxes like image one, most are in worst shape for sure. I purchased it just for the dividers but I am re-thinking that. I rebuild/restore nasty original boxes of any kind or make. The only boxes that I ever “made” are images two and three. My wife likes them so I keep them. The bottom says it all as far as I am concerned—even back then (I did not measure much back then—LOL). Marble-On!!
  10. These can be tuff. I can see an Akro or two--possible and maybe a Vitro or two. You are close to being very right with "Imperial" with most. Marble--On!!
  11. Ohh, I suck at WVS but I do not see Jabo here. Just sayin! Marble--On!!
  12. Holy Cow!! Great idea and subject schmoozer. It may take awhile to catch up though. New images and all. Keep it going! Marble--On!!!
  13. This one is nice and the video does no justice to it because of the reflections. Great images for sure--just crop them and give us a closer look. Killer marble!! Marble--On!!
  14. This is a nice one and I have seen it recently during the search on the OP, I will do some more digging. This type did show up in Akro “Gift boxes” usually without any stamp like yours shows (rare). I looked and could not come up with it---maybe a “Akro Ringer” gift set is where I saw it, I am not really sure though. It is a keeper for sure. Brittle as it may be, put it in the fridge (who cares if it smells like onions). Check it out next spring and continue on with a possibility of it being more pliable—then try getting it straightened out with a slight press between two heavy objects(books). It does take some time. Marble-On!!
  15. This one is hard to beat. I just ordered two more. You can set a 5/8" marble on it and really get what needs to be seen. https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Rechargeable-Flashlight-Water-Resistant-Included/dp/B072K27MCK/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3TPAQSBIGJE49&keywords=Anker+Rechargeable+Bolder+P2+LED&qid=1664227185&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIwLjAwIiwicXNhIjoiMC4wMCIsInFzcCI6IjAuMDAifQ%3D%3D&sprefix=anker+rechargeable+bolder+p2+led+%2Caps%2C106&sr=8-1 Marble--On!!
  16. A Spotted Dick? WTH?? I hope that I win one of these to come up with ---well something off the wall!! Live and learn----Spotted Dick--Really??? Marble--On!!
  17. This is a pretty good question. Well cropped images with the cutoffs marks are in order. Marble--On!
  18. Show them if you have them, I would love to see them. I will give an opinion if you like. I love em. And have researched them for years. You show yours and I will show mine-love it! Pouches on!!!
  19. Pure soap---ugggg. I use Parsley instead. Dried Cilantro is not so bad---but fresh??? I grew it one year---many years ago, thinking that I might be missing something---not!!! I am with you Ann---ugggghhhh! Parsley--On!!!
  20. Ok, out of focus is one thing--just a part is another-- FOUL😨!!! Hmm still do not get it---Vitro bullseye--LOL😁. Marble--On!
  21. I just IDed one in the Swirls post on Saturday--"Jabo Contract" that looks black. I give up!! Marble--On!!
