Let's go y'all ! This kind of connection seems like it's the whole purpose of 'The Marble Connection' Let's do it!

I'd be interested if it's open to any members

This is a really cool looking marble, I like when you can see the flow of the glass or the defining lines between the colors, I'm not sure if I am explaining that clearly enough. Is this a Peltier?

So there's at least two out there, this gives me hope! 🤩 . . . . . . Soooo you're saying there's a chance 😀

21/32"

Happy Akro Friday! 13/16"

I get that! I would have done the same ❤️

The Orange of these older marbles is just dazzling! My favorite Akro color is Orange which is kind of funny because I'm not much of an Orange fan anywhere else. But the Oranges in the two on this page (the other one being at the top of this page 2) are just electric. ⚡⚡⚡

Wow! Thanks for this explanation Fire! And for the Superman examples too 👀

I've only once sold my Akro, I think it was three or four Snakes. It was way early on in my collecting years, and I still regret it. I even traded a Baby Blue Snake after that . . . . severely regret that. I did not know. Since then, I've not sold any Akro. I'm sorry I don't have photos to show.

Thank you! Such a great time and great atmosphere, you're right about that in your earlier post 😊 that was the best part. I'm looking forward to the next marble show I can get to.

Here are a little over half of my new marbles from the show 🤩 I haven't taken good photos of the other half, but once I do I'll share a group photo of them also. Thank you to Chuck Sumner and Marshal Wilson for a great marble show!

1. a Powder Blue, Brown, Orange, and Yellow corkscrew 21/32" 2. an Oxblood Spiral, hard to photograph 5/8" Happy Akro Friday y'all

So I might have gone a little crazy at the Old South Marble Show in Valdosta last week 🤪, but how can you not when you're surrounded by marbles? I have a couple Fridays worth of new-to-me Akros to share here LOL. 1. Baby Blue Prize Name with a horsehair 11/16" 2. Pistachio Green on a transparent Orange base 19/32" 3. a piece of Akro cullet in the shape of a heart ❤️ 4. Orange, Red, and Pink 5/8" 5. an Orange Ringer 5/8"

1. White and Yellow on a transparent dark Blue base 5/8" 2. Blue and White on a UV base 5/8" 3. Orange on transparent dark Blue base with wispy White and dark Gray? 21/32" 4. Transparent Orange Snake 5/8" 5. Blue, Blue, and Blue 9/16"

I would really love to find one of these, I sometimes go back to page 11 of the Mostly Pix Akro post in Steph's Study Hall to admire it 🤩

Very hard to choose, but if I had to . . . A Periwinkle cork on a translucent green base. Akro 🤩

Amazing time in Valdosta! Thank you for the photos Cheese, I should have taken photos, I am usually the shutterbug at any kind of event, but I suppose I was a little distracted by the marbles haha! I had a wonderful time, and it was fun to put faces to names and meet so many new friends, and we're all focused on marbles, can't get any better than that.
