"In My Time of Dying" ----I have more time behind me than in front of me---nuff said! Excellant guitar riff--top notch. Marble--On!!

I am glad too. Welcome my marble collecting friend! Marble--On!!

Just a big old Vitro! Marble--On!!

Pelt Bloodie. If you search on the interweb you will find boxes of these. Nice find! Marble--On!!

I did that just a few days ago--you hit the wrong button during the response. Marble--On!!

Akro x2--nice one! Marble--On!!

I do not recall any opal in Vacors. Set me straight if I am wrong. Jabo x whatever. Marble--On!!

Yes--these should not last long. Marble--On!!

Ok--Roger and Claudia I will eat my shorts here🤢--I have a few from them that were doubted as well. Marble--On!!

I have never done "Spacebook", trust is not to be trusted. I had my e-mail hacked once and it sent an ad for Viagra to everyone in my address book. I no longer keep an address book. Yes me--I did get a bunch of teasing for it while I was back at work🤢--never again! Marble--On!!

Facebook?

Hmmm it does look out of round judging by the last image. Alox marbles are a confusing bunch. Alox purchased marbles from other companies and sold them as their own. I would call this one a WVS of some make. The white looks good enough to be batch glass--or glass made from a recipe rather than cullet from another glass maker. This is about all that I can offer. Marble--On!!

At the very least a "Tracer" imho. "Tracers" are hard to find with all of the ribbons--"traced". Nice marble! Marble--On!!

This one is hard to ID but it may be a WVS or a "Gamer". Size always matters. Marble--On!!

WVS imho. Marble--On!!

I agree with MK on the first one. The second one looks like a Vitro but the cutlines tell me MK. Mk is notarious for the cutlines being folded/indented rather than incorporated into the orb. My opinion only--- and I would love to see some more. Marble--On!!

I am with Chad here--size always matters as do the seams or cut marks. Backlight it as well in any future images with no UV--"Backlight them all". Marble--On!!

Vacor--"Zebra". Vacor made a lot of versions of this one. Just my opinion and I hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

Both are Peltier MCS imho. Marble--On!!

So--just over 5/8". This one is a WVS--no foreign made here. I just suck @WVS ID—I just know one when I see one. Nice images—Nice Marble!! I hope to see some more opinions here. Marble—On!!

Welcome marblemike to TheMarbleConnection. I know that you wanted to say "hello" in your header because I drop the o all the time---I have to use an editor nowadays😁. I am judging the size of your marble as well over 3/4" by comparing it to the surrounding edges of the image. I hate to step on Chad and Steph in the same sentence but----this one is a Jabo-- "classic". Classic meaning Factory made and not from any “special runs” Of course this is just my humble opinion and I wish to see some more regarding this one. Nice marble none-the-less—these are usually filled with little white hit marks due to the softness of the glass and the marbles knocking into each other during shipment/sales. Marble—On!!

Not intentional. The larger the marble more likely the orange peel in my experience--even with Vacor. Pelt had orange peel on a few black based marbles, as did a few others. some companies just have or had higher standards. I have yet to see an Akro with orange peel but I am sure that there are some out there. Masters have not appeared in my home with orange peel and I cannot recall any Vitro either. In my judgement--it was due to the temp of the glass vs the temp of the rollers. David McCullough would be the one to give you the best answer. Give him a try--what the heck? Marble--On!!

That’s me crying and I agree with Ric, I doubt that these are Akro. I would love to see the link to the original post if they have any cutoff marks. Marble—On!!

Not on these--no bid from me. Good advice though! Marble--On!!

You beat me to it--nice job! Marble--On!!
