VaMarbles

This book has been at the top of our want list. Maybe somebody can send us xerox copies. Lol.

I would refer to this more like horse hair than Oxblood.

Auction has this one right. Blue Raven.

S&S Saturday

Look’s Oxblood

Pelt

Mrs VaMarbles had it as a stormy skies as well. She’s better than me on IDs.

Thanks all. Colors and coverage didn’t seem right for Akro. Into the Master box it goes or maybe the display shelf…

Looks like Akro seams to us. Don’t think it qualifies for a sparkler? Thoughts. Thanks for looking.

.65”. Blue base with white ribbons. Thanks for looking.

Nice marble/slag. Not sure who made it.

My wife and I are new to the forum and collecting, about 2 years, but are looking to add to our early collection. We travel together looking mostly in the Mid Atlantic Area and Lancaster PA because we both think we are part Amish At least our grown kids do. I know most of you don’t know us but we are middle age and hoping to build a nice collection over the next 20 years. We traveled to our first show this fall in CT since we got married that same weekend 30 years ago in New England. We re stepped a lot of memories that week and got to meet a few new friends as well. If you’re looking for someone who will display, value and appreciate a collection please PM me. My parents were both collectors of antiques, had a store in Millbrook NY so I’m very familiar with cherished items. Thank you.

I was sorting MCS to sell and came across one as well with an orange streak. Would not have even noticed it until you posted yours!

Thanks Guys. Had it with the other multi color rainbows and wanted to give it a second look. I agree with both of you!!

.645”. Clear base.

Sorry this should be over in the ID Section. @akroorka

Clear base. Does this have a name. .68

@cheese I can 100% insure you it’s the same marble. I’ve added another picture of this SCC from a different distance to show the brown wooden plate I took the first picture from. The brown background with poor light really makes things look different!!!!

No.

@Ric yes light passes thru but it’s impossible to tell what that base color is.

Welcome Jon. We are over here in Virginia if you’re in our neck of the woods?

I think I saw these on one of the auction houses recently?? Jars in the barn rafters looks familiar??

@Ric Here’s some better pics of the marble I posted above. Better lighting this time. 11/16

I’m not completely confident on yours being a strawberry shortcake, I was just thinking it could be a possibility with its similar look. I would say the few SS cakes we have, they are very distinct in hand. Let’s see what everyone thinks.
