Going to say yes to that, and made even harder to find because most of the remaining ones are probably stuck away in jars of game marbles.

That's exactly how I found that red monochrome alley flame. digging through pile's of gaming marble's and stuff other people didn't want. Also found several solid green av. master's 2 or 3 gumball's and a few solid oxblood marbles, Akro I believe!!  Well worth the hour's of eye strain and the sore back, to me at least. Probably blew right by a canary or 2. guess I'll have to go to the landfill start diggin and take another look :unsure: Let' see now I wonder where they buried those ??? I'll take some pic's of the Master's, gumball's and the Akro for the next down load. Again please be patient w/ me while I learn how to transfer these pic's w/o losing them.    Thank You,  Chad G.

Just looking through some old pic's and stumbled across it. I always have problem's with remembering the color's of certain boxes, maybe I'm color blind ???  For some reason I had this box of milkies, not the marble's just the box confused w/ the cerise agate's box. :dunno:  ( I must be blind or my mind is goin " ) probably a little of each.

Seen em before I was confused by the coral color and seam so I paid them no never mind. Like I said, I throw away nothing mint anymore, a lesson hard learned. By the way nice pic's and thank you for sharing yet another tidbit of knowledge, though I'll probably never see them again I'll certainly not pass them up.

Imposter?  Is one a Vitro Whitie?  I don't know which one for sure -- I see three or four I'd wonder about.

It's a kokomo, I know the mighty white is  close,  That's what thought it was for a long time. I know the color's are a little different in pics's 2 & 3 but row 3 is close the mib I have. For a long, long time the kokomo's w/ the wider stripe's, sometime's split, I had put away w/ my rainbow's, but always wondered about the little fleck's in the glass.  Just like the semblance of this one  to a white, side by side you can't tell as easy . Although both of us would probably I.D. the white right off the bat.I guess i kinda cheated a little. Also a small bit of opalescence, something a white doesn't have.( AHhh  there it is an "exact duplicate to my mib, it say's not to copy so out of respect I won't. Go to West Va. marble collector's club, kokomo glass, pic # 8, 2nd row from the top, clear to the right is my mib's doppelganger.)

 There all pelt's except One, third row up from bottom, the third mib going from left to right. Not a white in the bunch.

Ooooh.  Hey ... I think you could be onto something!

 

 

P.s., that base did look pelty to me from the start -- that's why I was asking leading questions about it.

How do you id this canary. Is it the glow and the seams 


It both glows under UV and has great fire inside in daylight.

The time I realized I might have something special was when I noticed that it had the handgathered nine pattern.   Then later my favorite Pelt guy confirmed it for me.
