I just heard from Pete that the Land of Marbles is now out of business. Pete has supported the marble hobby for well over 20 years and it is sad to see that part of it go away. The chat board is still there. I have not heard from him on what is happening with that.

Lower left and middle are Peltier. Lower right may be one also. Upper left may be Vitro or Akro - tough to tell.

👍👍

OK Steph - now you have to identify the marble(s) in each day. That'll help everyone.

The transparent swirls are sometimes quite hard to ID to a particular maker.

Here is the only picture I have (Dani's from 2011)

Nice 'coal'.

Agree

Not sure if you are asking about my bag or...? I don't see any aventurine in the OP pic but doesn't mean there is not any. I do not have that bag in front of me so can't tell if any aventurine although I have seen specks of it in some Vacor (Mega) marbles.

I thought they might have been an earlier version of the Dragon - same colors but a much more defined pattern. Just like the early Michelangelo as compared to the subsequent runs. Here is a picture of one of my bags of Dragons (nowhere near as nice but similar colors).

You got the sulphides, couple clays, several early handmades and one "out-of-place" MK Tiger (or maybe Wasp).

Yes, Peltier Rainbo - unusual bleeding on that one side, especially with base glass.

Nice one.

Great info. Wow, 22.5 tons of cullet! Now to get the book started..

That all makes sense. It's a great starter collection as well as the memory of your grandmother.

They look like they are all from the 50's - 60's time frame. First group are cat's-eyes - not valuable but collectible. Looks like some hybrid types with more than one color on some of the vanes (Vitro usually). The other large group of marbles look like Vitro All Reds - again, common. The last couple pictures have another Vitro called Conqueror in lower right and a couple Peltier banana style cat's-eyes (single vane of color).

The upper left is ? but rest look Vitro.

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.
