bumblebee Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 These are beautiful. I can't help but think how many toddlers back in Akro Agate's heyday devoured these marbles because of their rich candy-like colors. It's kind of fun imagining if they were candy what they might taste like, and what candy names we'd give them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR BALES Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 I do not actively collect Akro, but a few nice ones find me once in a while. Here's one I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bumblebee Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 I just got these two bruisers in the mail this morning. Appear to be mint condition except for one sparkle on one. Haven't measured them exactly but I added two 5/8" ones for comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsMopar Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 Fantastic pics folks! And according to the American Machine-Made Marbles book, Akro started in 1910, so this would make it a centennial celebration...how kewl is that! :-) Felicia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ally Opp Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 A trio of 1 3/16" Moonies. Notice the nice fire glow cast on the cloth surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ally Opp Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 I feel like I've been blown out of the water, Alan!! Avast that cannon fire with your Akros! Seriously, do you have any Cardinal Reds amongst that last over-powering onslaught? I've got some tiny ones, just over the 1/2" mark that were dug, but don't really know them to be the Cardinals. Take a look! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orbboy Posted June 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Here is an old pic of what I was filling up as a display shelf. Not too much into doubles of a colour combo (there are a couple there). Since out-grown this shelf though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
