This one looks orange on my moniter ast least. I think that "German" sounds right. An orange slag in any condition is a rare thing to find. Nice marble!!

WVS in my humble opinion. Marble--On!!
-
Nope--a wvs--I cannot name it though. Marble--On!!

The Gooseberry that layed the golden egg.

You have some killer two tabs there and I do not have to tell you what my fave is. Nice group! Marble-On! -
This is just not a MFC imho. We need some more opinions here. @Ric? Marble-On!!

Lets call in @Fire1981 and @Chad G. for a final evaluation here. It does look like an Alley and I can see some lines along the blue that may be AV. I wonder? Marble--On!!
-
Hmm, it sure looks like a Corkscrew. The white in your images shows as light blue to me. I have seen these before and the damage lines up with an Akro. Marble--On!!
-
Ummm, you may have a Champion here. Nice marble! I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

The Jabo Classics came in a variety of ugly and pretty. I think that you have a pretty here. @Nantucketdink will have the final say here as far as I am concerned. Marble--On!!

I purchased this box a few years ago—glass top under the cover –very nice shape—I just love old boxes like this—guess why I purchased it? -
Most of us here have been around for quite a while. The very oldest Marble Board on Planet Earth. Many of us have decided to retire and quit or move on to death---not me. You know what. We have a responsibility to pass on the knowledge that we have acquired. The knowledge that we have is not achieved without another one or two or several behind us. There are kids at five years old that love marbles as much as we do at 25 or 105 years old. Let’s keep this thing going and pass on the Marble knowledge that we all know. I challenge you all to be teachers as well as collectors and be willing to be informed and challenged without any remorse or bad feelings. Marble—On!!

Welcome RosalieR to "TheMarbleConnection". This is the oldest marble collecting board on Planet Earth. You may feel young here but realize that there are many younger ones that read these posts so keep it clean language wise. I will endeavor to keep it clean for your grandchildren to read as well. I appreciate your images, nice clean and clear. You seem to have a great mind in sorting marbles--good job! I will leave it to rest of the great folks that are committed to a great community here. Marble—On!!

I agree with all said and @Melissa can give us her best here. Marble--On!!

This one would have been a good contender in the "Oxblood August" post. When holding these mineral spheres/marbles you can just feel the coldness in hand. (Spheres are any round thing over 2 inches) Glass warms up quickly--mineral spheres do not. Just an observation on my part. Marble—On!!

Alan may be a purist--more power to him. This one is not too shabby for a first find. To find these mint is a pocketbooks worst nightmare. Marble--On!!
-
You like it so I like it. It is a pretty common swirl that was made by a multitude of makers. A wvs no doubt. Marble--On!!
-
This one is a Pelt imho. Baby? Nope! These Pelts come a lot smaller than this. They had a Peewee machine after all that is still in use as far as I know--from another maker. Marble--On!!
