Chuck G Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 Hi members, i have been playing with the camera again, still need some more fine tuning though. See if you all can pick out the Kokomos in the group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sissydear Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 The only ones I'd venture a guess on would be row 3, marbles 3 and 4. Or they Kokomo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psia-antique Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 They are all Pelt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psia-antique Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 You are correct! I see the Kokomos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david Chamberlain Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 I think this is doomed to failure! O.K. with the back row being #1 and working forward to the front row....already I've forgotten how many rows there are! Anyway, the 5th one over in row #1 (the back row). The 1st one in row #2. And in row #3 the 2nd, 3rd and 4th. Of course, so many Kokomos being so similar to Peltier + only getting one side of these marbles........Yeah, I know excuses, excuses, excuses, BUT these are Kokomo marbles.....or they aren't. And I'll admit, I just don't know the Kokomo palette. You want to send me a nice mix of them Chuckl? David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sissydear Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 I'm confused. Which is the back row? the front row? I was counting from the top row when I said row 3. We all speak English and we can't understand each other. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david Chamberlain Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 You're in a safe zone Edna because no matter which way you count from back or front because the 3rd row is right smack dab in the middle of the five rows I decided for no special reason to use the back row as the 1st row. Thought I'd made that "perfectly clear' a la Richard Nixon. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david Chamberlain Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 It may be fun for you Chuck but when it come to Kokomo marbles for me it is excruciating. Got a sample set for sale? Or trade? David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck G Posted May 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 Hi David, i was waiting to see if the memebers was going to post more on the Kokomos and some photos. Kokomo purchased an old peltier machine and created their own color palat when they went into production. Their marbles are a little different and the majority of them are sumwhat easy to id once you have seen a few of them. In the center of the tower are two mustard yellow and lipstick red on a honey light amber base which we all have found out that they are an experimental run at Kokomo. Honey-mustard and ketchup!!!! I hope some of the members post some more photos for you and you will see what i am talking about, and if not i will try to post some myself. Kokomo was not in production very long and some examples of them are kinda hard to find. These marbles are real similiar to peltiers but have their colors slightly different.

psia-antique Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 One of those Kokomo's is posted on the right end of the last full row of marbles on the Kokomo page at joemarbles.com. I bet someone can get Chuck to tell the story of how these marbles were finally broadly IDed.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck G-- given that description Chuck, i'de say they all are kokomos if i was insane enough to fall into this trap again, i started a kokomo thread every year for a few years and got shot down big time,, i'll give you this, the colors sure are different,,, man i shouldn't touch this thread with a 10 ft pole,,, lolol,, bj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david Chamberlain Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 BigJohn, I figured from the get-go that whatever credentials I had were going to be obliterated by jumping into this thread but I went ahead and did it anyway. Come on, get your fair share of humiliation. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
