This is the Kokomo I referred to earlier. I see the same seams,patch configuration and bubbles in the  base glass as well🔥

I've had one in the past that's like mine with a darker red patch that was identified as kokomo.  

I emailed Bob block and he got back with me and has told me that the marble in question is not very valuable giving it a value of around $10. I will be putting it on my ebay for anyone interested 

Had this got s left handed twist? 

Is Vacor the only Company that made Marbles in Mexico? This one 1&5/16"

Ooh, I think this could be a very special find. It looks just like some transitionals that I saw in a Robert Block essay (totally out of round with a very crude, twisted pontil). In the article, it said that that hundreds were found in the 1960s in a Shanghai garbage dump, but that they were made much earlier (like 1920s or 1930s). Shiroaiko (a collector in Japan) says that she owns a few, and thinks they were made in Japan in the 1910s to the 1920s. 

 

I bet in the future we'll find out more information about these guys, but they're pretty mysterious. I've heard they are also pretty rare, (seeing one of them is almost like seeing a ghost). 

That is the best news I've had in a very long time I'm stoked 

Good looking marble

I’m kind of thinking Kokomo 🔥

That's what I thought but didn't want to say it until I heard someone else

This one is around .5" pewee size. My thoughts were leaning towards Ravenswood Novelty. 

This one is about ⅝" 

This one's right at ⅝" 

Size is around 11/16" little scarred up but it's a cool one

I guess it sorta has a very light purplish color in the swirls makes me think of an opal lady

I notice some blue hues here--is it from the surrounding area or is it true?

Marble--On!!

That is from the background I didn't realize it was on bleeding in

Size is 37/64"

Size is 21/32" pretty interesting but simple

Size is 21/32" almost spells ALLEY on it when you put it under uv light
