Thank you sir. A young(45) newbie here but all about those lovely west virginians and of course the german handmades . No interest collecting the modern, 50's+ but wanting to learn them just the same. I had a couple marbles from younger days that were not thought much of just acquired some how. Three years ago I bought a house on an old lot in town and while land leveling the yard these round colorful beauties kept popping up everywhere and after researching I was hooked. Pelts, Vitros, Christensens, Akros but surprisingly no Masters... yet lol. All players that kids from long ago have dropped or lost. Also jacks (the 50's to 60's not the early large ones) little girl glass hair brets that were basically marbles with a hole through them among other kids odds and ends. Out of the hundreds of marbles I've unearthed so far non have been bobby dazzlers but to me priceless. Best I would say a Peltier NLR Liberty no marks of being played a five color Akro Popeye that was played religiously unfortunately a 1 inch dark brown Bennington.. corkscrews an auger a ghost ect. ect.
