Jjay Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 Hey, thanks again for your help identifying these marbles. I've got most of them separated into some kind of group anyway (except the cateyes). Now I just need to take some pictures and post them. I have had a few comments on the best views to portray for identification purposes. If you have some input on this I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Steph Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 In the first photo, #1, 2 and 5 have seams showing. That's the feature we're looking for on these patch style marbles. #1. Vitro blackline all-red -- this is from the 1950's, earlier and more desirable than the most common all-red which doesn't have the "black line" #2. Peltier Rainbo -- an attractive one #3. Another Pelt Rainbo probably (but has similar colors to a well-known Alley swirl, so this is an example of why it's good to know if the marble has seams) #4. I think Transparent Swirl (which is in the WV Swirl category). I say "I think" because it's close to looking like a slag, but I do think swirl. #5. Marble King Tri-color Rainbow #6. I think this one is a slag -- machine-made slags are from the 1900's to about 1930. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
