bumblebee Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 Digging through mostly Vacors and Imperials, I found several Vacor Twisters and then this beauty. My spidey senses said CAC. A little over 5/8". If not CAC, did Vacor make earlier/better runs of these? This even have some depth in the glass at one point. Colors in the first double photo are accurate. The Vac CAC is redder/orange. Anyway, if Vacor it's a killer and where do I find more of this "run" ? Edit: Found this old threat at LOM that talks about the early Mega/Vacor runs were much nicer: http://www.landofmarbles.com/phpbb/showthread.php?31199-vacor&highlight=twister A clue perhaps?

There are a few thing I would like to see more of on the marble to be a 100 percent, but the clearer base area, bubbles and flanged ends still have me thinking cac.

bumblebee Posted December 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 Well CACMIKE voted 100% CAC so this has been a fun mystery. Sure wish I could see more early Twisters close up. The newer ones have fuzzy blend lines and clearly aren't the same. Here it is in hand with one of the five or so Twisters that were also in the big bowl (Twister on left).

bumblebee Posted December 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 Another knowledgeable CAC collector thinks it's Vacor. Here's a helpful link on the Twisters: https://www.billes-en-tete.com/detail.php?id=63&lang=en Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winnie Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 The first pic-looks different as a Vac twister. Here's a close up of Vac for comparison,the red is a bit fuzzy and it has not a clear base area,so......? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumblebee Posted December 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 Thanks. Yours seems to have finer lines than my certain Twister. It seems possible that with the colors on yours that the right machine making could generate my CACor Vacor. Wish I could go to that CAC show and look around for its twin.
