Yes, great variety of 30's, 40's and forward machine made marbles. Have fun sorting and ID'ing.

Here is another Tom Sawyer bag with different Vitros in it.

I didn't see those initials on the list that was done a few years ago.

From the odd pattern, I'd go with contemporary.

We will try the pics of my opened bag again now that bumblebee got the posting error fixed.

Thanks, I will try it again on that thread.

Great variety.

Top row - Vitro, Alley, Vitro, Vitro. 2nd row - prob. Vitro - ? - Vitro - WV swirl (not sure which company). Bottom left - Vitro. The black oneswith frit or ? look like contemporary pieces.

Here is a picture of some micas (not mine). The lower right two in Robwell's pic look like they might be the crackled (fried) marbles but, in a picture, sometimes hard to tell.

I'd be leaning towards a Peltier Rainbo.

To clarify Ron - I am talking about more than one color on a single vane - not more than one color in the cat's-eye itself. For example, the 6-vane Japanese cat's-eye with 3 pairs of "v" vanes might have a pair of green, a pair of red and a pair of white. That's not a hybrid.

Peltier Cat's Eye Champion Bag (19) (Banana Cat's) (opened) - View 1 - Al - Display JPG file 59 KB - this is what is on the specific file line in the folder where I keep all my bag pics In the details section of the "Properties" box, it has Date Taken - 6/21/2009 9:56 am - Digital Camera FinePix A303 - Width 800 pixels - Length - 600 pixels - 72 dpi (and a bunch of other stuff) In thinking about this, does the length of the name or the parentheses affect the upload? Thanks for your help.

Steph - what is this? Once in a while when I go to attach a picture from my computer (all are same style and similar size), this error comes up?? I was going to post a picture of the opened bag with the Peltier cat's-eyes in the thread you started but this error came up.

I think the general consensus is that a hybrid cat's-eye is when there is more than one color on the vanes. I use plural as there could be an odd color (pr debris) on one vane but nothing on the others. That would not be a hybrid (IMHO).

From the size, I would be thinking Jabo.
