For the Akro tin, the white marbles are moonies. I think Akro the tins with the Liberty bag were gave to boys who sold so many subscriptions to the Grit paper. I don't know who made or sold the metal items, the key rack or the picks with the corkscrews.

Looks more yellow than what is in any Vitro Tomato.

Both Peltier for me.

Me three. Very early Ravenswood. Maybe made by L.E. Alley. Most all Ravenswoods contain no aventurine. A few may contain chemical reaction aventurine, but they are extremely rare.,

100% Alley. Alley had swirls over one inch. This one was made at the Pennsboro location.

Put it in a clear glass of water.

I think it has a high chance of Jackson.

That shade of blue and all the twisting in out and around. I think it has a good chance of Ravenswood.

Back from the recent 2022 Florida show

Vintage wood box with wood blocks puzzle. Box has wood blocks which make six different puzzle pictures. The five puzzle pictures are in the lid of the box. A challenge to work, I did a different puzzle picture for photographs. It took me sixteen minutes to work the puzzle. Then another eighteen minutes to put back together the original puzzle for the kids playing marbles. Simple but effective. No cell phone, computer or battery needed. Plus it still works after all these years. -

If that is a row of Blue Galaxies ? Which it is likely, depending on condition, which is probably very good, that is a $10,000.00-$20,000.00 box. If I won it, I would probably go to FL to get it. Forget shipping it. The seller may get a surprise when they get the 1099 for taxes at the end of the year. Over $600.00 total in sales per year on Ebay now gets the seller a 1099 for taxes due.

Not off Miller machine. Miller machine at Peltier was a hand gather machine.

I have been buying empty clear glass rolling pins for years. Some will have the instructions included. The original cap is also good. The make good marble displays. Nola has one full of old MK girl scout marbles. I have them full or corks, Alleys, Ravenswoods, Vitros and others. Each pin has a different kind of Vitro.

Maybe not high dollar ? But at least $35.00 to $75.00. Most shimmering Spruce are $5.,00 to $10.00 which five would be maybe $50.00. It is close if not a calligraphy pattern and with aventurine. I have a few of these, same color, same av. I think they should be even more. Which they will be before long as most Alley prices are still climbing.
