X3--- Marble On!!

Umm your images are looking a tad dusty. I would condsider a WVS--Take this one outside and give us a better image in sunlight Marble--On!!

Yeh, I know, you want someone to say "Brick" here. I have blown up plenty of game marbles in my collecting experience. This one is not a "Brick"--there is no oxblood involved. Just a nice"Gamer" Marble--On!!
-
When in doubt, I always check out the damage. This one is an older marble. I cannot call it though. Lets ask @Fire1981 for an opinion here. Marble—On!!

This one is a Jabo "Classic" imho. Marble--On!!
-
One base color and one other color--white. I would call them slags but the popular ID would be a WVS. I am just an older collector that does not recognize a WVS for what they may be. This one lines up with what may be considered an Alley Agate swirl. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble—On!!

A "Master Monday" would be a great thing. You go my marble collecting friend. Marble--On!!

Still considered a hybrid Popeye @Alan for generations--is it a common one?--Yep. This is a nice one! Marble--On!! -
Nice buy--!! Marble--On!!

It looks pretty refined to me--I would say not modern. @shiroaiko and @YasudaCollector may have an opinion here. @Ric has done some research into these as well. I love the marble. These two colors in one orb just light me up. Marble--On!!
-
Nice marble---Vacor "Dragon-Fly? @Melissa will know for sure. What a beautiful marble, regardless of the ID here Marble--On!!

This may explain a few things. I have three "Akro Champions poutches"--they are huge. 9"x5". 1926, 1928 and 1931. Finding these is like finding a laying Rooster. They will be preserved for sure but the info on these is nill. I talked to Roger Hardy about them--maybe I should call him back with more questions. Thanks and Marble--On!!

Right on Ric! Marble--On!!

Great stuff here bumblebee. Have you ever come across anything regarding the Akro tournaments? Marble—On!!

"Jorkscrew" imho.(is this right--the nickname?) A Jabo that looks like a corkscrew. Nice find! Marble--On!!

akroorka replied to The Nickel Guy's topic in Marble I.D.'s
I would love to help--they do look like a Vacor to me--but I do not recognize any of these name wise. @Melissa may have some input to share here. Marble--On!! -
X3---Marble--On!!

Consider Vacor here--a "Rooster" of some sort. Marble--On!!
-
"Mill Balls" were used in the polishing process of a variety of items. Throw what ever into a revolving tank with these and they get polished. It still happens today in some sort. Cool find! Marble--On!!
-
Very nice find Fire! I would be fired up too. Marble--On!!
-
The green and yellow here are deep colors. Nice "Popeye" Marble--On!!
-
Vacor it is imho. These "Roosters" come in a bunch of different shades and names. Some are more translucent than yours, some have transparent base glass (red of course). These bigger ones will no doubt show a more opaque base glass just because of the depth. This is of course my opinion, and I appreciate them all. Marble—On!!
