  1. 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!!
  2. 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!!
  3. Stop it right here! . Wolf, Start a new thread for each marble and expect better results for an ID. Marble--On!!
  4. What Chad says X2!! Marble--On!!
  5. I am thinking Jabo here. Marble--On!!
  6. Most are--there are always exeptions though. Nice question! Marble--On!!
  7. 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 !!
  8. Just a tad over "Pocket wear" but a pretty cool find. Marble--On!!
  9. Yes X2--nice ID!! Marble--On!!
  10. X3--a little weird but it stands up! Marble--On!!
  11. 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!!
  12. 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!!
  13. I have Heaton vibes here but I am flying by the seat of my pants-literally. I saw the Urologist today. Marble--On!!
  14. Even better than a "Helmet" imho is a Vitro "Aqua Marine". I think that you may have one here. Nice marble! Marble--On!!
  15. 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!!
  16. Consider Jabo here--a "Jabo Classic"--just sayin😁. Nice one! Marble--On!!
  17. 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!!
  18. Nice find! Marble--On!!
  19. I think that it is, a weak one though. MFC all day long--Nice antique machine made. Marble--On!!
  20. A CAC "Striped Opaque" here imho. A very nice marble, but it should be in it's own thread as far as I am concerned. Marble--On!!
  21. I have not seen many Red Latticinios--very cool!! Nice share! Marble--On!!
  22. You are right on, Clay's seem cold to the touch vs glass marbles but so do the Polymers imho. I have not weighed them one vs the other but--I would think that clays are heavier. Yours appear to have a fingermark or indentation from the hand-rolling process, the Polymer makers that I know of are much more refined than this. I will settle on clay on these two--who knows really? @akronmarbles may have an ID and I will defer to him here. Brian is a collector of the Clays from the USA--he knows way more than I do regarding these. Marble--On!!
  23. The Medical care in the USA is suffering since the Covid thing, I appreciate you all sharing your concerns here. I thought that I had it bad here in Wisconsin but things are looking up👍. Wait until you are on Medicare--the treatment--well--it is not the same as before. I actually have to ask to have my Prostate checked--Whatttt??? I want a Doctor or a PA--not a nurse practitioner--just sayin. Marble--On!!
  24. Yep--a "Jabo Classic" or one made for general sales from the Jabo company made for world wide sales. A little "bland" but in great shape. Nice marble! Marble--On!!
