  1. I am in old mode--sorry I miissed it Dave. Marble--On!!
  2. Thanks @cheese😁--strike three for me😁. That was the very first time that I typed Pennsboro ---swing and a miss. I will go lie down by my dish once again. Marble--On!!
  3. As far as charity goes--fill up a quart jar or smaller and ask $30--they will fly off the shelf. Marble--On!!
  4. 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!!
  5. Thanks--I could look at that second image all day long and be satisfied. It is not a high dollar marble--just a very cool one and I would love to see some more images of it. Great job there! The rest are just--hmmm--not too special imho, probably asian. I do not know what to call it though, the second one. Nice clear base glass--not from overseas imho. It may be a Vitro--but @Ric would know for sure. Great marble!! If you are a seller--too bad--if you are a collector--top notch! Marble--On!!
  6. "Larger" means nothing here--the size is important--get a plastic calipers and size them. The second image that you show is a killer marble--no doubt.---Love it! Marble--On!!
  7. Hmmm, I do not recognize these as USA made marbles. Maybe @Mojo or @shiroaiko can help here. @davesnothere and @YasudaCollector may have some input as well. These are just weird to me and any help is welcomed for sure. Marble--On!!
  8. @Melissa will know these for sure. Marble--On!!
  9. This is not a "Blue Raven" my marblecollecting friend. It is a wvs of some type-imho. For some reason-- I would not call it an Alley Agate. All opinions are needed here for sure. Marble--On!!
  10. Calligraphy? It would be a stretch imho. I have no problem calling it an Alley Agate--a very nice one. It stacks up to be a slag--one base color and white--but these are now known by most collectors to be a swirl. Everyone made slags back then--easy to make and quite a good seller. All of the glass was in one furnace--easy-peesy, no secondary streams, glass colors do not mix as in clay or scrambled eggs---or "Playdoh". This is a nice one--beat up yes--but still a cool find. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble—On!!
  11. Lets make a call to @Nantucketdink--these seem to be up his alley. @Melissa aslo collects this type--lets get her opinion as wellšŸ‘. Marble--On!!
  12. Yes! imho of course. Nice ID! this is a tuff one for sure. @Fire1981 will nail it down. Marble--On!!
  13. Great images once again! I would call it a Pennsboro Alley. ( yah--I suck @ WVS ID ) I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. @cheese? Marble--On!!
  14. I do not know--good question--I highly doubt it though. This coating was sprayed on a very hot orb of glass and then annealed. With the exception of the Vacor "Wave-Breaker", I do not find the iridescent coating very attractive. (I just love a good Wave Breaker---they look like a Space aged Peltier) Good luck and of course— Marble—On!!
  15. Hello shiroaiko, Do you have any of these bottles to share? Cool stuff! Marble--On!!
  16. This is a slag--one base color and white. Today most would call it a WVS--from what company? Probably an Alley Agate imho. Nice find! Marble--On!!
  17. Top notch Mojo---very nice! Marble--On!!
  18. Lets get back to the box. I wonder what @shiroaiko has to say. The box looks like it is from asia to me. Marble--On!!
  19. This is another nice example with great images. I think that Fire is right on here. Marble--On!!
  20. Thanks for joining "TheMarbleConnection" shiroaiko. You are lighting the marble collectors world up with your collection and insights. I just love this stuff--- Marble--On!!
  21. Me too--blue av is pretty rare--- Cool find in any marble--Vitro is my choice here. Marble--On!!
  22. A Vacor "Twister" imho--a very nice one for this size! Marble--On!!
  23. I looked at this one hard and had to step away for a moment or several and had to come back to look. It is an Akro Tri-Colored Patch type imho—pretty weird and very cool imho. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble—On!!
  24. @Ric knows these better than I do, but I would probably sort this one as a Vitro. The blue is intense for any marble maker--hard to tell here. It is a nice one regardless of the ID. Marble--On!!
  25. They are both Vacor imho. The top image--the top one-- a Vacor "Dragon". The second one is what I would call a ā€œJungleā€ made by Vacor. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble—On!!
