Hello, I'm not new to the world of collecting marbles, but I am new to researching about them. Been collecting for years, just never thought to learn about them. I just know I like them. Here is a couple pics of some of them. Any information you can supply about them would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.  P.S. Sorry the pics are kinda poopy.

Hi, at first glance I saw "modern".  But now I see some vintage in there.  On the top row, 2nd from left, the blue and black (on a white base) is a Vitro Blackie, from 1960, give or take.  

Top left might be an Akro patch, possibly from the 1930's. 

The leftmost marble on the middle row could be a vintage swirl, maybe 30's to 50's. 

On the bottom row, the cat's eyes on either end could be vintage, or could be modern..  

I can't see enough detail on the far right on the middle row.  

The rest look modern, styles currently in production, most or all from Asia. 


As I I suggested to another new poster, best to put a few marbles per thread.  Since yours are laid out neatly and there's just one group, I took a shot at them.  But my brain is very tired. :)

The blue and black is my favorite...well second favorite. My favorite is all black with one very small white streak (couldn't get a pic of that one). I really appreciate your help. In future posts I'll try to stick to one or two marbles. And get better pics...LOL Once again, Thank you.
