  1. The first one is probably a Jabo classic with a very bad roll mark. The second one looks like Vitro. The third one ????????????????? Not enough traits or anything to narrow it down to any certain maker. Collector value for all three is zero.
  2. Those three above are the best. American Machine Made Marbles has the most amount of correct marble companies history. Cat Eye marbles = World of Cat eye Marbles. Marble Mania= Great pictures.
  3. How many marbles are here to id ?
  4. Not A vitro Tomato, they are opaque. It is just a game marble, which almost every machine made marble company produced.
  5. I was at Jabo for about 60-100 investor runs, start to finish. I was a investor in at least 60 of the runs. I was at Jabo many days, nights and years before the special investor runs began. I know where the tubes came from. Most of those came from deceased Danny Sink in VA. I bought several 3/4 inch tubes from him, as other collectors did. Steve Smith of OH(Smitty)did the Eagles run. There are several million marbles similar, just Jabo investor runs, similar to that but not exact. Depends on what similar is ? We usually ran about 2000lbs. at each Jabo investor runs. Some were double that. We did it from 2008 until about 2019 or 2019. Some early years had four runs and some years had 10-15 runs. Each run had hundreds of different color combinations. Some had aventurine, some had lutz, many had oxblood, some had frit added, on and on. If you have a marble near 3/4 inch and it is a swirl with lots of colors and or sparkles. It is about 95% chance it is a Jabo special investor run made at Reno Ohio.

    Any 3/4 inch Jackson is rare, I have only seen about six. But it has the right color combination for Jackson.
  7. I agree it is a machine made colored clearie with a roll mark. The larger marbles are more difficult to control. The hot glass glob was to large for the size groove in the roll. So it did not spin correct to make it round. Vitro and several other companies made this color at this size. Collector value zero.
  8. Left to right = Marble King-Vitro-Marble King-best odds Alley.
  9. Both Jabo. Probably 75% or more of the marbles near 3/4 inch size, found on the market today are going to be Jabo special investor runs from 2008 to 2018.
  10. The first two Jaob. The last is Alley with chips and hits.
  11. First one is 100% Jabo. It is near 3/4 inch. I was there when it was made. Second one depends a lot on what size it is. ? Size can be a large factor in identifications. If it is 7/9 to one inch then it is Jabo. If near 5/8 size then it is more likely Heaton or Alley. I have doubts o fit being 3/4 inch. Third one is foreign to the US. Most likely Imperial or Asian.
  12. Jabo Blue gray yellow is CAC. But something bad wrong with it. It has been reheated, in a fire or overall very heavy damage. Damaged Master Jabo same as the first marble.
  13. The first one is not CAC. It is Ravenswood or Heaton. The second one is foreign probably Imperial Asian.
  14. I just see a dark purple base and white. I posted above my thoughts why two colors . I think they just added white to the dark purple base.
  15. Yes that is a naked Berry Pink above. Opaque Berry Pink below.
  16. Those ten above are Marble King.
