6:00 PM Fire--Central Time. We always eat at home--or Taco Bell once in a great while😁. I get the big 12 bunch of Tacos--6 soft and six crunchy--my wife gets what she likes🤢. Hot sauce to the max. Yumm. Maybe this weekend, I will be prepping for Easter on Saturday for Sunday. A #14 Ham and all of the fixins included. I just love this stuff!!

Welcome "TheNewToMarblesGuy" to "TheMarbleConnection". You will not get a bad ID here--just some discussion. The original post of your marbles show all Jabo "Classics" with the exception of one--the middle lower one(wvs imho)--the one to the left may be a Pelt--maybe. The folks here have stepped up and tried to help for sure. You can agree to dissagree for sure and we can all accept that. Live and learn--we all have and you have to step in line here and show a few at a time and take your lumps. I expect anyone that is passionate about marble ID to take a stand--but one at a time my marble collecting friend--please. I will for one, will not put up with this one getting too aggressive. Marble--On!!

You will usually see drizzle like this one on a hand-gathered marble. This one breaks the bank and is machine made. Image #13 is justr "Killer" It is more than likely an Alley Agate. Of course, I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Great Marble!—Just a great one to find in a lot. Marble—On!!

This is a Vitro “Master Tray” the marbles are 7/8”. The brass has great “Patina” and the inside was obviously used as an “ash tray”. I want to clean the inside and then again not—just leave it alone says my instinct. (it does not stink at least to my used-up senses) Tell me what you think. I will post some images below of the tray itself along with a smaller one on top. Thanks and 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? It needs some fixin but my fingers are not that steady anymore-maybe next week. Marble—On!!

I posted this one a few years ago. I have not posted many images lately, so this is a start. I figured that it was a dug game marble--probably a Champion. Here is part of my question back then. “Notice the copper and the silver colors—even a bit of rust. The metal dives in and out of the matrix—do not ask me why this happened—it just did—a product of machine made marble production is good enough for me.” If it did not have the metallic look-I would call it a game marble. This is a game marble on steroids—and I just love it." Any ideas otherwise? Marble—On!!

A Marble Pouch? Pretty cool-It could be an airfreshener if you hung the Irish Spring in it. It reminds me of some old Native American designs--maybe a lizard. Marble--On!!

As far as charity goes--fill up a quart jar or smaller and ask $30--they will fly off the shelf. Marble--On!!

I would consider this one as a Vitro "Hybrid" Cateye--but lets wait for more opinions here. This is a very pretty marble!----Just a "Killer". At this size--"top notch" once again imho. Very nice! @Melissa and @Ric may have some different opinions here. Like I said--low value--I do not know why--but very cool. This would be more than welcomed in my collection! Marble--On!!
