ManofKent Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 A handful of damaged and just grubby loose marbles arrived with a grubby bag of Peltier Champion Jrs. This one cleaned up okay. Marble King Rainbow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 From that view, I don't see a vintage Marble King Rainbow, or a modern one. The vintage Marble King Rainbow looks like so -- it's called a Patch & Ribbon pattern. Ignore the first marble here for a moment. It's a Tri-Color Rainbow. The typical P&R pattern is Patch on top in Color 1. Ribbon of Color 2. Ribbon of Color 1. Patch on bottom of Color 2. Modern Rainbows do have two patches, one on either end. Usually but not always the same color. So ... back to your marble. It could possibly still be Marble King with that combo. Or it could be Vitro. OR, and this is how I'm leaning at the moment, it could be an Akro Tri-Color Agate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManofKent Posted May 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Thanks Steph - the very distinct 'sharp' stripe made me think Marble King (but bear in mind I'm new to this!). There's no third colour so I wasn't thinking a tri-colour, but I'll have a dig around for Akro photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shellkat Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 I thought mine was similiar, but upon closer inspection.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Vitro on yours, Shell. Richard, did you see that that's a link to a Tri-Color thread at the end of my post? It doesn't always look like a link to me, the way the board gives a preview and doesn't just underline the link. So how you said "dig around" made it sound like you didn't realize it was a link either. Sorry if I'm being silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Steph - no I didn't spot it was a link I think you're right with Akro Tri-Colour, but it's sneaky of them to count white a color Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
