post-1705-128314260175_thumb.jpg assortment of vitros primarily but the 2 on bottom far right and upper far right interest me, unsure the maker, all are 7/8ths and 1 inch

Any ideas on these and value. Don't have in hand or seen in person but trying to get them online. Some I want and some if I can get real cheap may try to resell. Can't attach them all so later post are ones am unsure about if they are just newer or have no value.

Last one: these I'm unsure about. Think most have no real value but if I'm wrong and any are over 3 dollars please let me know. These ones I don't really like but will pick up something if it has value.

Just a warning on the one that has piqued your interest. It is a Vacor de Mexico replica; basically a paler version of the Peltier Marble Co. Superman. A lot of people have spent a lot of money on this marble supposing it otherwise.

Your last marble pictured is interesting. Undoubtedly Vacor; it has all the appearances of a Vacor. Great color combination. I wouldn't mind a bag of them for $3!

Most of the individually pictured marbles are Vacor.

The three you point out in the cello bag appear to be Jabo while the others largely appear to be Vitro.

Thank you for the replies. Saved me some hassle and foolishness. Darn vacors, I don't have a Superman but that is the main one I was interested in purchasing but thought it looked a little different than the Pelt photos. I better get some Vacors so I have more of a reference point when looking at mibs. I appreciate the tips and will pass on most of them because of all of your help.

For comparisons you can always look over my Photos sections:

There is an entire section on Vacors and some great examples of real Peltier Superman and others for you to compare to.
