Patriot or Liberty, There are not a whole lot of collector named Akro corks. The Akro company did well with that--naming. Nice marbles regardless of the nickname. Marble--On!!

What are these two?? I consider these to be some of the best examples that I have found. I know what they are—give your best guess. Marble—On!!!

This is a group of Vacor Multicolored Cats-eyes from a net. The second shot shows the ones that are filled better, they are surrounded by “Aliens” from a net---Yes that is the name. Blue-ish/green base glass with yellow inside. I do believe that yours are Vacors—nice ones. If you like cats and do not have any Vacors---step up and get a net or two—you will not be disappointed. Marble—On!!

These images I display are all Pelt banana cats-eye marbles from a 40 count bag---Union Made—I love it. As you can see they all vary a bit from one to the other but they all will go towards the cutoff to the other cutoff, usually in a “U” shape. Some may have veins, some may be translucent, some may be more opaque and some may look like a banana---like the yellow ones. You have some great cats there—especially the blue ones—luv-em---they remind me of a well made Master Marble Cat—Not Master though imho—probably foreign made. Vacor makes some really nice Cat-eyes, some of which are in colored base glass. Steph may have nailed these. It is a great sorting job with nice images. Great Cats!! Marble—On!!

This is a pretty crazy PPP, the Acme Realers are jealous of this one. Nice marble! Marble—On!!

Pelt---maybe polished. Marble--On!!

It may be a Jabo------Fire-------or not😁 Nice marble! Marble--On!!

Thanks Gladys, I have been corrected on the lunchbox thing and I have changed my ID of the marbles---They are Akro, they did come from Roger Hardy--just a non regular--very nice pair of "Experimentals"(dug marbles). Marble--On and learn on as well!!

Great find Fuzzy, Marble--On!!

These two are from the collection of Roger Hardy, the KING of Akro Marbles. Both are 7/8” They are known as “Experimental”, they were considered as “discards’”----and usually came from dig sites How do I know?????-----I purchased them from a very, very, respected collector---------No Doubts!!! Marble—On!!!

Akro, Akro, Vitro---imho--- Marble--On!!

I agree, Marble--On!!

Me too, Marble--On!!

This one is a Pelt---Not a Fire---Just a very cool Pelt IMHO🤑 Marble--On!!

It Is an MK-----In my opinion Fire😁 Marble--On!!

Regardless of the results----This is a great thing to continue---Thanks bumblebee---Great Idea for sure!! Marble--On!!!

Welcome Dillon and keep-em -comin. The Elvis and Marilyn marbles are a pretty different and attractive to me. I am thinking that they are Vacor swirls. These "Printed" marbles usually show up on a solid based marble. There are folks that collect printed marbles but they are not usually a high dollar item with the exception of some really old Akro and Peltiers (there may be a few more). Some Pokémon marbles bring good prices Marble--On!!

Here is another cool one that is new to me---wood marbles to boot. https://www.ebay.com/itm/125284772269?hash=item1d2b8de9ad:g:3XUAAOSwlPpiagVh Marble--On!!

This one is a Patch. Marble--On!!

JABO Tribute’s Last Dance 12/16/08 had a Flamenco named/listed. Here is a link to an “All About Marbles” thread that may clear things up a bit for you Joe2. https://www.allaboutmarbles.com/viewtopic.php?t=38582&sid=39ef2582a19572773ac96886ff9b7197 Thanks to nantucketdick! Marble—On!!

It could be a Jabo Fire---that red color makes me say it. Marble--On!!

Well, it looks like it wants to be a patch type---tuff one. Vitro is as good as any choice for me. Marble--On!!

I see blue, yellow and white in a transparent green base. No clue either---pretty cool! Marble—On!!

Thats a crazy cool one Fire, I would put it with my Pelts---all the Kokomos go there too---some day I may sort them better. Marble--On!!

I see a Pelt also. Marble--On!!
