  1. Peltier “Bananas” are known for some of the very best clear glass ever made. I doubt that this one is a Pelt. Marble—On!!
  2. You are on the right track here Parmcat. Akro Sparklers generally have a less seedy base--seedy meaning bubbles in the clear glass. The cutlines are right, you have the right amount of colors involved (weak though). You keep up the great work/research here and you will find a few nice Akro Sparklers here and there. Marble--On!!
  3. I agree with Japenese here. Lets call in @shiroaiko for an opinion. Marble--On!!
  4. It sure does--I love it. I cannot really call it though. It apears to be a clay with very heavy glaze. Notice the round hits or moons as in a heavily used glass marble. This one saw some great action to be sure but it stood up very well. I would call it a superior example of a well used--"undetermined" clay marble. It deserves a special place--someone really loved this one in the past--as I do . Put it on a pedestal and give it respect. I just love this stuff--- Nice share! Marble--On!!

    Vitro?

    This is probably a Vitro "Bulls eye". They made a run or several of these with great depth of color--I just dig -em. Nice find!! Marble--On!!
  6. I would sort it as an Akro my marble collecting freind. Backlight this one for more fun--- Nice find! Marble--On!!
  7. This one just lights me up--Great marble!! Marble--On!!
  8. Here is a Thumb pot for you two and all of the rest here at "TheMarbleConnection", they are actually smaller than you think. I am no giant at 6' 220lbs. I believe that alley made these tiny ones as well. New images from me--"about time" I would say. The marble is a one inch Corkscrew Here we go---
  9. I get the Vitro vibe here--but consider Akro--a Hero type. I am not sure--just tossing in my 2 cents. Marble--On!!
  10. Do not concentrate on the colors here. Look at the general make-up of the glass. Picture it in your mind as black and white—this one is a swirl from WV—no maker from me. (it may be a Champion) Marble—On!!
  11. Vitro is how I would sort it. Marble--On!!
  12. This one is a weak version of a Pelt Rainbo imho. Marble--On!!
  13. Ok, Nice back up images. This may be an older Vacor called a "Spaghetti" or an "Aura" in todays world. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  14. I get it--the feel. I am just a crazy marble collector but Masters just feel cooler in hand to me for some reason, almost like stone vs glass. Master Mades also show up with lashes. I am not afraid to call this one a Master Made Marble. Regardless of the ID it is a very nice one. Marble--On!!
  15. Well, I still do not see Vacor here my marble collecting freind. @Melissa may have some input here @Mojo as well. @Nantucketdink knows Jabo like no other that I know of. I respect the opinions of all of them and the rest of us here at "TheMarbleConnection". This is a tuff one to ID---- for me at the very least. Marble--On!!
  16. Your last image has me puzzeled--is there some glass missing there above your finger in the center? This would be a bigggg one for a Jabo Classic. I will stick with Jabo Classic here for some reason. A weird one for sure! Nice share! Marble--On!!
  17. This one appears to be a white and clear marble to me because I know how difficult it is to image a white slag. They have a tendancy to show up like yours with a odd--not crystal clear glass after taking an image. Sunlight is the best option when shooting these. Of course I could be way off here--but it is still a good tip. Marble--On!!

    Vitro?

    Hmm, size? This one strikes a cord with me for some reason and I hope that you get more opinions here. Is the base glass crystal clear, or lightley coke bottle colored? The background that you used here may have messed it up a bit. The orange has me wondering if it is even a cat--or a CAC. Yep--I get zoomies sometimes----. Great share here! Marble--On!!
  19. You know what? When you have a marble with such nice clear glass with green involved—who cares who made it? I love it—it is probably an Asian made marble, from a variety of countries.—Just a nice group of images and a very nice marble to look at. Thanks for sharing it. Marble—On!
  20. This is just a killer Vitro. A Conqueror imho. Put it on the top shelf--very nice! Marble--On!!
  21. This is a very nice marble-- I do not see the "Miller" thing here however. I appreciate all opionions and hope to see some more Marble--On!!
  22. This one may be a Jabo classic. @Nantucketdink may have an opinion here. Marble--On!!
