  1. I have had one close to this and I always, after much research, went back to Vacor as the maker. It could be a Champion--size is always important with Marble ID--mine was around 7/8". Marble--On!!
  2. These are very cool, I would call them Clay for some reason. They may be Polymer though. I have never seen one of these let alone two of them. Get a proper ID and get a better value for them. I have no Idea. A very nice share! Marble--On!!
  3. No --just a very nice Akro Slag imho. Marble--On!!

    Akro?

    👍. Pretty nice marble!!! Love it!!
  13. As a Definition--"Slag’s” are white on a single colored transparent base glass. This is the accepted version of a "slag" for many, many years. Yours is Pretty Weird. It is not a slag imho. I see two cut-marks, one of which shows white in-between. This suggests to me that this may be a weird “veneered marble”. My call is just a very weird Marble King or really weird Vitro Agate. Marble—On!!
  14. That first image is Mezmorizing, to me at least--I got dizzy looking at it. I am not into Contemps but I might try one of these one for size--Just because🤪. Marble--On!!
  15. Yes Wolf, They were rare 25 years ago--quite common now imho. Marble--On!!
  16. This is an old and great dusty collection here Lola--did you inherit them? I would start with the largest multi-colored marbles that you can find and post them with good well-cropped images. 3-4 images at a time with multiple images showing four shots from a different angle or side. Pick out the big “Pretty Ones” and let’s take it from there. For the most part, multi-colored marbles bring the best price and this is a good place to start with your collection. Any filled boxes or any box for that matter may be worth more than you can imagine. This is a hard thing to do—selling off a collection that you know little about. We are all here to help you out—just do not expect any prices or offers on this board. You give us a few hints and we can point you in the right direction as far as selling goes. This will be done by “Personal Message” or PM as we call it. There are plenty of folks that we all trust here, that will drive down/up/left/right to you and take a look—and give an assessment. I wish you great luck, Marble—On!!
  17. A very nice Jabo classic imho. Marble--On!!
  18. Veli sounds right here--but--it could be--with the blue involved--an Alley Agate. Marble--On!!
  19. I have always loved to put old marbles in old boxes for display. This is one of my favorites. All Akro--- Marble--On!!
  20. My call is Pelt Peerless Patches--PPP---all of them. To find four would be a great find--Six is next level. Put a "Pelt Figure" on these and they would "Skyrocket" you to very many future marble purchases ( maybe even a down payment on a car--lol😁 ). Oh well--just dreaming here----they are still very nice keepers for sure. Thanks for the Image--Very Nice--- Marble--On!!
  21. I agree--no CAC here. This one is more than likely a Jabo "classic". "Classic" meaning one that was produced by the factory for general sales through-out the world. This one looks very nice with nice color coverage and a very "Minty" finish.( these bigger Jabo were prone to little white hit marks just from packaging they are very soft in glass terms) This is a very nice marble that would fit into any collection. Thanks for sharing it. Mrble--On!!
  22. They sure do Roberto, I like them but buyer beware, there are repo's of the marbles out there--educate yourself before any purchase of these for sure. I had a numbered repo box that I could not fill with sub-par marbles. Too rich for me! Very collectable to the point of me backing off from these. Good Luck and Marble--On!!
  23. The longer the thread the better imho William--it is a "Frosted Hurricane". I just love long threads. Always feel free to PM me with any concerns about posts--all of you here @TheMarbleConnection. Marble--On!!
  24. Hmmm, One is a weak "Miller type" (Burnt Cristmas tree?)-the next is a nice big (but weak Woodie) NLR. Nice miss imho. Niether one will hold it's value here imho. Safe your bucks for the best! Marble--On!!
