These are both 3/4" in my book. The first one is a nce Alley Agate and the second one is a nice Akro Cork--this one may be named ( Superman?). Oh well, I am not really into names and I am glad--it takes some brain power just to remember the makers. Nice marbles non-the-less! Marble--On!!

I would call it a 3/4" Akro slag--Purple imho. Nice find!! Marble--On!!

Nice Marble!! Marble--On!!

Good question here SequoiaBET. “Slags” are a combined process where the two colors of glass are combined from the start from the furnace or in the old pots that hand-gathered marbles came from. Most “Machine Made” “Swirls” are a two (or many more) stage process where one color meets another just before it is cut-off onto the rollers. To really get an idea of this, you would have to study the machines and how they worked. I have and it has helped me with my ID of marbles greatly—finding out how they were made by what machine. This is intense stuff and it will blow you away once you start to research it. I encourage you to do so along with the rest of the marble collecting community that we all belong to. When I say that “I just love this stuff” I mean it. I have been down the “Rabbit’s Hole” for weeks on end researching marbles and the machinery that made them. (I spent a lot less on marbles while doing this and gained a whole bunch of knowledge that I am here to give away) When I get locked on to a subject, I was/still am, like a virtual or book weirdo, just sucking in the info that I could/still find. I just love this stuff, Really I do!!! Marble—On!!

If you want a proper ID show all four sides of the orb. Marble--On!!

This type alway made me wonder--from Vacor. The frosted/tumbled types from Vacor always seem to be very well covered. Marble--On!!

I think that you have two Vacor "Dragons" here. Nice marbles! Nice share here---I know how hard it is to shoot two different sized marbles together and get a good focus on either one. You keep on trying and expect better/more opinions. Marble--On!!

The last one is questionable--the top two would be Alley as far as I am concerned. The first one is a "Lady" of some sort imho. The second one is appears to have some Oxblood-- it is pretty cool to find any WVS with Ox involved. The last one could be an Alley but clear glass in Alleys is not easy to find-- I see the light purple here--I am on the fence here and it hurts. It could be a low bucks "Lady" of some sort. Marble--On!!

Stop it right here! . Wolf, Start a new thread for each marble and expect better results for an ID. Marble--On!!

What Chad says X2!! Marble--On!!

I am thinking Jabo here. Marble--On!!

Most are--there are always exeptions though. Nice question! Marble--On!!

This may be one of those nice ones from Asia--I love the flakes. These flakes in the green are un-absorbed minerals in the glass that all marble makers had a problem with for many-many years. Even Akro would show this stuff in their marbles-(Rare but true) This may just be a weird but cool "Imperial" imho. Marble--On !!

Just a tad over "Pocket wear" but a pretty cool find. Marble--On!!

Yes X2--nice ID!! Marble--On!!

X3--a little weird but it stands up! Marble--On!!

Luv-it! Marble--On!!

So am I Fire. There are a few Vacors out there with this color combo but they all have a white base. This one has me puzzled. Marble--On!!

There were many from the Jabo "Contract Runs" that need to be backlit or imaged under heavy light. This may be one of them imho. When purchasing these online--always notice the back ground in the image--if it is too bright to tell what the background is--back off. Just my opinion but I have been there and done this. Marble--On!!

I have Heaton vibes here but I am flying by the seat of my pants-literally. I saw the Urologist today. Marble--On!!

Even better than a "Helmet" imho is a Vitro "Aqua Marine". I think that you may have one here. Nice marble! Marble--On!!

The image in the book page shows what I would consider as a Vito "Conqueror" with a nice "V" for Vitro--pretty cool. Yours, I would consider as a WVS--maybe a "Champion" made. ( I do like the fine line of black in this one ). There are folks that collect "alphabet marbles" from A-Z and most of the "V's out there are from Vitro. This is a nice one that stands out from the rest of most "V's". Marble--On!!

Consider Jabo here--a "Jabo Classic"--just sayin😁. Nice one! Marble--On!!

I agree with "Parrot" here. Nice find. The more white the less desirable to collectors of these. This one carries some damage, so do not expect top dollar. A nice one for a newer collector though--or some one that could not afford a mint one. Nice marble regardless. Marble--On!!

Nice find! Marble--On!!
