Great pics and a lot of interesting items besides marbles. Thanks for sharing.

Here is pic of bag that I have. I have not seen a "real" bag and am pretty sure there never was one done back in that time frame. This is a fantasy bag made since the late 1990's so they have been around a while.

5, 7 & 9 wee my thoughts and 11 is pretty sparse of ribbons for Alley so it may be but all ?'s...

Well done.

I'd be leaning Jabo.

12 might be an MK - newer. Others fit in the WV category and I think several of them might be Heaton. Glad to hear you are feeling better.

And you usually do not see a straight seam like that in a "Miller".

It might be easier with 5 or 6 marbles at a time and with 2 to 3 different views (keeping them in the same order). You can check some other ID posts to see what I am talking about. We love to ID.

Good variety - from old Benningtons to handmades and up to 50's-60's cat's-eyes plus packaging - nice find.

I agree

Right one - Jabo. Left probably but ...?

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).
