  1. Wow! ^^ That looks like it would light up a room, beautiful! Here is my meager contribution to the Pelts, one marble, different views.
  2. Dang. I'd sure like to receive a tray of CACs
  3. Orange is the new black - LOL!!! It has always been my favorite Akro color I'llhavethat1 - that bottom middle sure looks like an Akro to me, a beautiful deep orange. And that cork on the bottom left is my new love
  4. My favorite color, thought I would share. I'm missing a good orange/yellow, but it will probably always be a work in progress. Thanks for looking.

    Pontils

    From the picture above, it looks like this marble has regular pontils.
  6. That's why it's with my Spirals. I think these two are Aces.
  7. Here it is, I took a photo of it with the Orange for comparison.
  8. Wow, great marbles! I especially like that Buttermilk
  9. It does make sense, and maybe on the opposite end of the spectrum as well, with less white, they may be stuck in with Spirals. I have a red Spiral that has the thinnest ribbon of opalescense running through it. I keep it with my other Spirals.
  10. I have so much searching to do again, in those ads it almost looks like at first glance the bases are opaque white. Here are the best pictures I could find right now of the yellow Ace I had in mind.
  11. I tried finding an Ace, I think I have two maybe three, both of these have an opalescense in the base with a blue and a black ribbon, are these correct? I also noticed in the ad for Aces, that yellow is not listed, did it maybe come out later after that ad? I'm pretty sure I have a yellow one as well. (That black one is very difficult to photograph)
  12. These were the first type of Akro I collected, I've only found the one 5/8" in this color combo.
  13. I remember seeing that ad with the "exquisite patterns" for Moss Agates Feel free to remove these if I am incorrect in placing these here.
  14. I spent some time over the weekend looking through the archives, pics, and tutorials and have a better understanding of what you're saying. It's less of a situation of "I want to call it an Ace because that sounds cooler" and more of a "Alan gave me the appreciation for marbles, and now I always want go to his page for identifications" and feel the need to be stubborn about it. Still learning and I do care.
  15. Vitro Superiors are hard to find!
  16. That's what I was going by as well Winnie ...
  17. I would LOVE to go. Unfortunately, I keep receiving bills in the mail dang it. I wish they would stop Someday I'll retire, can't wait.
  18. I don't think there is an actual yellow in this marble, it looks to me like its a deep orange or red, but thin over the opaque white, which is making it appear yellow if that makes sense. I looked and looked at several different ketchup and mustards, and as much as I want it to be one, I don't think it is. I'm having a hard time distinguishing ribbons, but only because I'm not too familiar with Pelt construction. A bloodie? I'll start looking those up And do you have a name for it MC Marbles?
  19. I'm sorry, I should have included that in the original photos and the size : 7/8"
  20. Oh! wow, that is not what I was looking for lol, I guess I figured it was more of a thin smeared ink. That is really cool, and literally looks like ink. Thanks migbar
  21. I was looking around trying to find another Pelt similar to the one above, no luck ann, is this close to what you described above?
