Cathy Bingley Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 I might be over enthusiastic about asking for help, but I have never seen such a great knowledge base as here. Thank you all SO much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 thanks ... The bottom right one of the first photo (top left of 2nd photo) is a Vitro Tiger Eye. From the 1950's. I thought maybe Alley on top left in picture 1 (bottom right in picture 2) but with the color pretty much on one side of the marble, that's a possible sign of Cairo Novelty instead. Middle right of picture 1 (middle left of picture 2) could be a Master or an Akro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 The pattern on the one with black around the center and white on either ends could point to a modern Marble King or a sort of plain Vitro Blackie. (We usually think of Blackies as having a white base with a black ribbon around the middle and colored patches on the end). But the glass texture isn't matching either one of those for me. Maybe other lighting would make me see it differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 Wondering about Cairo Novelty on the red and white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 I'm getting a bit of a Vitro feeling from the top right in the first photo. (Bottom left in 2nd). More pictures might help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cathy Bingley Posted February 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 I hope these pictures are better. Same marbles. New to taking pics of marbles. Again, thank you for your time. Respectfully, Cathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 Yes, good pictures. In this new ordering, I think modern Marble King Rainbo on the top left -- from 2000-ish. Top Middle --- still torn between Master and Akro -- a 1930's marble Top right -- if Vintage, I'm leaning Alley, 1940's. Bottom left -- pretty sure Vitro. Maybe in the Conqueror family. 1940's. Bottom Middle -- Vitro Tiger Eye. 1950's. Bottom Right -- still wondering about Cairo Novelty but no strong feelings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
