Steph Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 What do you have in the area of red-dish, white and blue swirls which you are confident about the ID's for? Relatively confident would do also! Thanks. What the heck, marbles still in question would be good too, but wouldn't it be great if the confident ones outweighed the mysteries. Is it possible?

Steph Posted June 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Here's a 1980's Champion as presented at Joemarbles.com. He shows several 1980's R/W/B's actually. I'll just bring the one over . . . for now anyway. Joe describes it as a Bicentennial Special but notes: These marbles were not in the Bicentennial Special Pack that Champion produced for the Nations 200th birthday celebration. They were made later in the 80's, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winnie Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 This one has some beige (or do you call it tan?) aswell,it was IDed as Champion. Now that I see the Champs you posted Steph I'm wondering if it's indeed Champion with that beige color. winnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speed Racer Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 I think these are all the same company all have brownish-red white and blue. Two have only a trace of the blue. All are around 9/16. I am not convinced on an Id. Champion? Or Alley?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph Posted April 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Nope. I'm quite insecure with my red, white and blues! For a time they all seemed to be called Champion. I've tried to sort it out but haven't found much information to go on. That was the main reason for this thread to start with. It didn't go that far. Obviously. Maybe ask about it in the main chat. Might be time for a new look at 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph Posted August 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 Came across another firmly ID-ed red, white and blue. Well, it was sitting in plain sight but I didn't make the connection. From the famous Alley sample case: Seems a good time to renew the invitation for any other examples people are confident about. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
