venwood Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 This is 5/8 with a clear base and bright yellow in a corkscrew pattern inside none coming to the surface. Thanks to all replies. Stacy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 The bottom view(s) aren't opening for me. Are you wondering if it's Akro or not? That's a lot of yellow and doesn't look like a distinct ribbon. But first impression is it looks Akro. Style name for single-colored ribbons in clear glass is "Spiral".

venwood Posted July 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 I didn't think that it was akro because it has alot of that yellow that globs up at the other end. Those last two pic don't open for me either. I will try and take other pic. The yellow is alot brighter than the other akro spiral I have. It doesn't look as clean as them either.

Steph Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 Yeah, all my spirals have pretty clean ribbons. I'm curious about what this one could be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 A JABO Corkscrew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 Yellow and transparent? Yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 'kay. I'm not familiar with clear-based Jabos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 I'm pretty sure I have one of these around here somewhere but it's likely in with a few gallons of other Classics. If I recall correctly, there is far more yellow than transparent. Imagine a typical Jorkscrew but with clear transparent striping on an opaque yellow base - outliers I believe.

venwood Posted July 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 Hey rick if you have one lets see it! There is more transparent than yellow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 Venwood, I'm sorry that my opinion is all I'll be able to offer at the moment. Finding them would be far more work than I care to expend.I failed to mention that those gallons of Classics are out in the garage buried under several other boxes of marbles. Maybe someone else will chime in. And FWIW, I've seen Jorkscrews in Akro keeper boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lstmmrbls Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 I will change my vote to a forkscrew. Don't ask(LOL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 I could go with a triple forkscrew . . . size, pattern and color - but the brightness and greenish-tint of the yellow still makes me wonder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
