  1. Watched this last night. That collection is way over the top! I met Ray at the NJ marble show. He's a neat guy. Stephen was over-amped on this video. LOL I collected Akro glassware decades ago. I might still have 10 pieces. Those tab ashtrays were epic. I especially was amazed at that identical twin pair. That gang Stephen has on his videos are some special and interesting people. I will get to another show someday. Keep up the great work Stephen.
  2. I don't see a window? I thought it was a requirement for them? Not sure. Very nice.
  3. That particular Orange and Red combination is distinct in my opinion and seen so often in Peltier. It strikes me as being almost exclusive to Pelts. But hey, just a thought.
  4. Very nice, I don't have many if any at all.
  5. Nice ones. I give you a trophey for the marbles and a thumbs up for the awesome deal.
  6. You have amazing photography skills. If I could be half as good at that I would be quite happy with accomplishing that. I had an idea that with you great images, you could do searches on Google using the upload image function for ID (and do ask here as you have too). That way you will find some like yours below and most all of them are already ID'ed for you. However, some people misidentify what they pictured for either deception, or they just don't know what they have. Go with the general consensus. I TRIED to leave a link here where I used your top marble image but it did not work for the post but it worked for me doing it. They are Cat's Eye type. there are many different kinds of them so it narrows things down. Just an idea. Once you figure out the type, then study a bit about that type. It takes time and effort to learn about marbles but it is fun and worth your time. Link FAILED
  7. It looks like there is a bit of translucent along the white to me in a couple places. nice ones for sure.
  8. I do not think it is Vacor
  9. Looking Jabo to me but that's just a best guess.
  10. I would be thinking Marble King Rainbow with a strange mix of some of that brown and white blended in the patch.
  11. In todays assorted net bag. A poisoned "Poison Dart Frog" ?
  12. I have a question hiding here on pg. 14 at the top I guess. Are the current Michelangelo the same marble as the current Eclipse? I can't seem to differentiate one from the other. If there is a difference, what would it be and Thank you!
  13. They come in glazed and not glazed. I am pretty sure in is a China Bullseye Marble but not from China. From Germany, and more ceramic than porcelain. It is quite old. I have a couple similar and was told here that they are usually found smaller than yours. bigger is better and condition and quality of the design makes it better. Of course, I have often been wrong. I like it.
