Wow!! This is the most beat up "Master Made Marble" that I have ever seen. Quite a testament to the quality. These old birds had to stand up against Steelies, Agates and Clays. This one is an old Warrior. This was no doubt someones favorite shooter. This would be a pocket marble for me--what a great find! Marble--On!!

Pretty cool, nice clean up and a nice size. I would consider going to a marble show, finding a kid that is interested, and give it away. I just love that kind of stuff. Marble--On!!

X2--probably from a boxed set of Imperials. Only God knows from where and he may be stumped as well.😇. Marble--On!!

You will fall and them climb out--we have all been there--keep on keepin on. This one has me stumped--cool though. Marble--On!!

Consider a Vacor "White Tiger" here. Just sayin---. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

I agree with the Raven ID. Many companies made such a marble including Champion and others but this sizes do line up well with the ID. Ravenswood made more 9/16"marbles than any other company and they made a bunch of them--millions of them. Marble--On!!

Umm-milky ox from Akro are the most common ox imho but is that another one with blue involved today? Quite rare if it is one. You have quite a few Akro silver ox in these images if you look closely. I do not see any really high dollar oxbloods here. The lemonade Ox is(tops in great shape) it is next to a patch until you show us different. Nice group--all worth some trade money for sure. There are a few that are questionable as far as Oxblood is considered imho. Marble--On!!

A pretty common attempt imho at making a marble. Like Ric says, a signature would make someone standup and say this is mine--no one is standing up here. If I made it I would be proud of it--never sell it though. Marble--On!!

These could be pre 2000 Imperials and who knows were they came from? Imperials came from a multitude of countries---many, including Mexico. Imperial was or still may be a company on the west coast that improrted many toys, including marbles. I would lean towards an Asian manufacturer here. Marble--On!!

Well, That is quite a mix and there are more than likely a few Jabo in there. I think that most are wvs. Marble--On!!

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

That big bloe hole throughs me off a bit--I have not seen many in a Jabo. This one may be a result of your images ( a bit dark) but I will consider a Jabo --Classic here--they were not all swirls. Marble--On!!

There are many "Black" marbles, most are Deep blue, brown or green, some may be purple. Yours is a deep blue imho. Do not get me wrong here this is just a very nice corkscrew. ( very nice) Ron Shepard had evidence of a black marble glass recipe--I have seen no evidence as of yet, but if he saw it--I believe it. Black glass in any form--not just marbles is very rare. Cheese is right--this is a close as it gets for me too. Nice Marble--they do get blacker-- Backlight them all and be rewarded. Marble--On!!

How did we lose this one? Did you give up? More images are needed here VAMarbles--this one is just top notch.

I agree that this one is a Master tkt--earlier. Marble--On!!

There is a point when oogly transfers into beauty. This is the case here. Any one that can show me one that is better than this one—a challenge---good coverage all the way around--just a normal marble that was made special --from the digs? Top Notch @Ric. Marble—On!!

I agree, Mojo is missed here for sure. Marble--On!!

Pretty cool marble and it looks to be original surface as well. (maybe buffed a bit--the surface looks a tad dull). This size is not very common in my experience. Great find! Thanks for sharing it. Marble--On!!

Good eye Fire--this one carries some blue. Pretty weird! I am 50-50 between Alley and Akro here. Both choices would be weird imho. I want them all to be Akro--just me. Great marble--great eyes by all. Marble--On!!

MFC X2--nice find! Marble--On!!

Join my club--nice marble! Marble--On!!

All day long--nice one! Marble--On!!

This one is a Peltier slag---imho. Marble--On!!

Jabo--Classic. Marble--On!!

Vacor X3--the name escapes me but The Nickle guy is right on it. Marble--On!!
