My first thought is Champion.

Probably Alley

Thank you all. 3/4 of a century.

Nice ones - older style, I believe.

Raelyn's son had posted this picture a few years ago and Bo had posted the other two back in the 2004 time frame.

The top two pics and several in the other pics definitely fit in the foreign made category sometimes generally called Imperials. Imperial packaged marbles from many sources over the years but mainly from Asia in recent years.

Nice pics - colorful ones.

Nice ones - a little fancier than most.

# 3 does have some Hurricane traits.

Agree

Neat. I have not seen ones like those.

Here are a couple pics on Indian Blankets - hard-to-find and more common.

Very cool.

And Merry Christmas to you and all of the others on this Board.

I'd go with Champion Pumpkins (from the old Flameout game proposal). Her is a picture by Pete (LOM) from one David Chamberlain sent him.

I'd say No on the 3rd one.

I think it is an Akro cork. The ribbons dip beneath the surface a little so it is a little confusing but I have seen many similar patters in corks over the years.

With the sparse striping on the original post, I'd be thinking foreign - "Imperial" style.

Looks like that "Imperial" style. I've read where some have AV.

Your ID looks good to me.

Game marble style - could be anyone.

No maker stands out to me other than a swirl.

Nice set up and great way to display. Hope you don't have any cats that like to jump up on shelves....

I received my copy of the book. Good 32+ page book by a cat's-eye collector who wanted to put some information out there for cat's-eye collectors. He has some values in the book that he picked up from online, eBay, and probably Larry Knudsen - who is knowledgeable but a little high (IMHO) on marble valuations. Does not have company histories but goes through the varieties of cat's-eyes with good pictures and a variety. Here are a couple of pictures. Sorry for the "cutoffs" - book was just a little bigger than my scanner when opened to two pages. I would recommend the book - the $9.99 price included shipping so can't beat that.
