Indian, Blue Angel? ID help, please.

Happy Father's Day,

I'm new to this forum and to marbles (and to marble picture-taking). These are some old, family marbles that I'm trying to classify. Any help would be appreciated. 

Thanks.

Hello. Welcome. 

 

No Blue Angel. 

I think the center marble is an Indian. 

Akro Blue Eggyolk on center left.  

 

Top left appears to be an Akro Prize Name corkscrew. Bottom left may also be.   

Top right and bottom right are also Akros.  Right center is a Peltier Rainbo.

 

Bottom middle looks like a Master from here.  More views could change my mind.  

Top middle is a West Virginia Swirl. 

 

Many of those marbles are from the 1930's.  Two or three possibly a little later. The Indian most likely older.

Thank you, Steph. That's very helpful. It's pretty difficult for me to tell the difference between the different marble makers. The Indian seemed easier for me to identify in a general way.

I've attached some other pictures of that Indian marble. Would it be classified as a 360 Swirl? Or do the black bands make it not a 360? Additionaly, could it be called a Lutz since goldstone seems to be in 2 of the black bands?

Yeah, that's a nice Indian with Lutz.  Desirable colors and pattern.  Condition looks a little rougher than most would prefer but still a very desirable type of German handmade marble.

Thanks. It seemed to stand out from the other marbles I'm trying to ID.

I'm the same way.  The German handmade marbles always stood out to me when I first started collecting/playing on the schoolyard.  They were probably 100years older than me at the time lol
