sarab Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Wondering what these 5 are. All have seams except the one at 9 o'clock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdNargel Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 12, 2 and 4 o'clock are Pelt, 7o'clock is Vitro don't know about 9 o'clock guessing a swirl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 With no seams, I'd also guess swirl (not Pelt) at 9 o'clock. So the question might be if it's a modern swirl or a vintage swirl. If vintage, then it goes to the WV swirl box. Another view might be nice on that one. I'd also like to see more of 7 o'clock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarab Posted September 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 My photos are so much clearer on my iPhone, I don't get why they become so blurry when I save them to my documents and upload them from there. Bugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 The top pix are pretty clear. Maybe it just doesn't like the close-up? I'll go with WV swirl on the one. But I don't recognize Vitro on the other, Scott, not with that seedy base. i'm intrigued by it, Sara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 The bottom (or right) one is likely Kokomo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 That's what I was wondering! But I only dared to whisper it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea that's pretty much why I stick to collecting Pelts though even a couple of my favorite Pelts have turned out to possibly be Koko's recently -Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 . . . a fellow Hoosier found another. I think Kokomo marbles are interesting and great fun to collect. No doubt, they are much less common than Pelts, but I doubt I have seen half a dozen I would call pretty. The vast majority wouldn't even come close. But that is just fine with me because I don't really care for marbles that are too flashy - unless they are WV swirls, of course. BTW, I think the middle one in the group of three could be a Kokomo too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikie_T Posted September 22, 2017 Report Share Posted September 22, 2017 All this talk about Kokomo..... I had to google..... my inquiring mind had to know. LOL Very ingenious and thrifty for the Kokomo Glass Co. to use their own rejected glass to make marbles. And the article I read said they got their marble machine from Peltier. COOL.
