Looks like I picked up 2 Jabo for 150 bucks. Oh, well... I know they'll be the best Jabo ever made! 😃 Not this one...

Pretty incredible. Now I know.

So basically that means that someone paid Jabo to make a particular marble to their specifications?

Asked if this is a modern marble or Jabo. This was the reply with two new lighted pictures. Comments? "No we don't believe so as he had it labeled as an Akro Oxblood & the other information in the title we got from our personal observations & information we found on marble collection identification websites. The color of the red matches the dark red typical of other Akro Oxblood that we have come across. Akro started producing marbles from 1915-1951 after which they closed, so any Akro marbles will be considered vintage machine made marbles. We've attached a couple extra photos showing the marble in brighter light. Hope this helps & thanks for messaging"

Came from old time collector who mainly collected Akros and other marbles of that time period.

Do you see green in this one oxblood?

Here's where the two unknowns came from.

How many Jabos do you see in this picture? Is that green in this other oxblood?

Morning. Any cac characteristics?

Lemonade? Slags?

I think it's somewhere around .7

.62

They are both 5/8"

Anyone know?

Thanks, Chad.

It eludes me.

Got some new info on this marble. From the seller: "I bought it at an auction in 2013, it was part of a very big collection. The owner passed away . The name of the owner is Ed Lindsey, the marble was in a group of CAC, but it could be early alley . I spent $3000.00 on that auction. It was awesome." Someone at All About Marbles thinks it may have been a dug marble at the Sistersville location. Hence, the many sunken glass bubbles. Love it! And of course, my uncle wants it. Sorry...Unc
