I thought Atmospheres were Machine Made

I hate to be harsh here, but I think that what you have is someone that is practicing being an Atmosphere maker. Marble--On!! -
Pretty cool, pretty small as well. Hand Gathered-no doubt. Japenese--maybe. Lets ask @shiroaiko and@YasudaCollector

Nope--a WVS of some make or model--just not Akro. Marble--On!!

Keep on posting psuiu--show us what you have and never be embarrassed. I mis-spell words all the time—you just mis-spelled a toy marble. Welcome to “TheMarbleConnection” and enjoy the world of collecting marbles—live and learn, we all did or are in the process of it. ( like me). Marble—On!!

I thought Atmospheres were Machine Made
akroorka replied to Fire1981's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
These were all sold in mm sizes. One inch meaning the smallest, 1-3/4 the second and 2" the largest. Compare a 1-3/4" to a 2" and be surprised. Back in the day the when the 1" were sold @ToysRus there may have been an ad to send in and get a larger one, I have never seen this ad. I still believe it to be true though and would love to see one if any help is out there. The marbles were also (imho) sold at glass shops in the Old Malls.(no proof yet) This is where the paper/advetisement above in this post came into play with this type. I have measured true Atmos @just over 7/8' and just under 1-1/16". Marble--On!! -

Around 1 Inch my marble collecting friend (plus or minus)--they vary quite a bit- 1/8" inch or even more. At the size that you show--this one is just not an Atmo. It sure looks like one though. Too Small--still cool. Once a marble hits the high marks for money it is often repeated--these Atmos are going very high. Marble--On!! -

Welcome Dwasson80 to the oldest marble ID sight on the web-- or on earth for that matter. "TheMarbleConnection". We will all help to ID your marbles. Just keep them well cropped and show several sides of them. Three or four at a time is acceptable--just send us some nice clear images. Marble--On!!

X2--Nice Peltier! Marble--On!!

This one is a stone--not glass. I am thinking "Tiger Eye" here. A very pretty marble--or sphere. Nice images for sure! Size is always important for a marble ID. @Alan may have an opinion here as well. Marble--On!!

Well, your latest image shows an oxblood snake imho. The Og is not oxblood--just very cool and a hard one to find. Marble--On!!
-
Yep--no Akro here. Marble--On!!

Ok--lets slow this one down a bit. I, and many, appreciate both of you and your posts regarding marbles. I was the one to say start the bidding @5$. These may bring $50--who knows? Lets just get along here and put it behind us. Marble--On!!

Size alway matters-- I agree with Master--Master Made! Nice find! Marble--On!!
