nancy cooper Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Eat your heart out Chuck! This is my Salamander. I looked for a picture of the 'machine made' salamander but gave up as it was late...glad to see it!... I really love the pictures (especially the pictures!)and opinions of everyone on this forum. If anyone stops posting or sharing their opinions here it's a loss to me and I'm sure others who love learning about these things. Fortunately for me not everyone has the same opinion or after reading the first one I'd have nothing left to do but go to sleep, and that's no fun. I enjoy the guesses, the serious discourses, the fun facts, and I even enjoy the opinions, like mine, that are all wrong most of the time. Please keep sharing everyone. Who would've thought that a small glass ball made for kids to roll in the dirt for fun could still be generating so much passion a hundred years later. I bet the workman who tossed the last marble of the day into a full crate at a small factory like the one Duffy shared today would've never imagined all the excitement it would be producing decades later. I often wonder how the marble I have in my hand got from where it started to reach me and how many kids may have carried in their pockets as their favorite...Nancy Posted by Duffy today Historic Photos Discovered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romanoak Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 Chuck nice marble. I think I may have overlooked them as I really look for the wild patterns in multicolor swirls. The one I have close to that is in a pale green matrix and the green I think is really white submeged with green glass over it. Mine has just the pale orange and no red but I think it may actaully be red submerged under the surface. The colors of mine are blue, green, orange and white with the ribbons running staight between the seems much as yours. May try to get a pic up.

rockinron110 Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 I can't wrap my head around Pelt on this one. Has to be master by the Seams, Pattern, Ribbons, and Earth Tone Colors IMHO. Terry35 what does Cindy Think? Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dfay1983 Posted May 19, 2017 Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 You guys really don't see the resemblance? So is the other Marble a master as well then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted May 19, 2017 Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 One is transparent One is opaque One has eyelashes One does not have eyelashes One is common color combination for Master Each are different color combinations One is earthtones colors One is bright colors Each marble has one cut line similar. Each marble has one cut line different than the other marble. Millions of marbles resemble two or more different makers. Try separating some Alley and Ravenswood's. Sometimes only one difference can point to a certain company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes only one difference can point to a certain company. Those are all very valid points. It appears though that only the red or majenta transparent or purple-ish color. Now imagine if the Opaque or green is centralized in the center of the Marble. The red base like with most other Peltier Marbles of this era would be forced to the surface of the marble and create a thin layer, muddying the appearance of the dark secondary glass. This would drastically change the overall appearance of the marble to the dull color of the marble in question. As far as the eyelashes are concerned. If you notice they are not attributed to the cut, but the act of the layers of the opaque glass folding on top of each other. like you would see on the cuffs of a pleated skirt. I do see your point that master did use this Color combination quite regularly. But as you stated in the end of your statement there are plenty of marbles with similar attributes and sometimes it is hard to tell them apart. I am simply trying to identify this marble based on the cutlines very similar class flow patterns and undeniable characteristics shown. To give you an example. I took the same pictures of this marble and simply adjusted the Hugh saturation to 100%. This is the results I got. Since it's pretty hard to tell them apart when you do this the marble in question is the one on the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marboman Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 Hello again, this may help. Try backlighting your marble. My marble has a red transparent base, like a ruby slipper with yellow and green opaque. It's not bright marble but not brown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
