wvrons Posted May 28, 2021 Report Share Posted May 28, 2021 What color are they yellow and red ? Or yellow and brown ? Colors have to be accurate to get a accurate id. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted May 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2021 I know my pics kinda suck. White baseglass is and true yellow and red swirls. No brown at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted May 28, 2021 Report Share Posted May 28, 2021 At 7/8 size. I can say that I have never seen(that I remember)a white base, bright yellow and red Alley swirl like these. But that does not mean that it is not possible by any means. ????? I have looked at them trying for Peltier twisted K & M. I have looked at them for Akro messed up corks. Vacor, Jabo. ??????????? They seem to fit Alley traits ????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire1981 Posted May 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2021 After looking at my marble on the left. It is an Akro Lazy Cork. Thanks for posting your Akro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire1981 Posted May 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2021 I know ! Every time I chase it in my fingers it's a really hard pattern to figure out. So I am still on the fence with it and I will revisit it later tonight when I need my nightly Marble Fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted May 28, 2021 Report Share Posted May 28, 2021 If it was a messy cork, I would expect the red and yellow stripes to at least hang together a bit better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire1981 Posted May 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2021 Strong White Baseglass. Semi-Transparent yellow with transparent Red. Just louped it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted May 29, 2021 Report Share Posted May 29, 2021 At Jabo we made some exactly like these(first two)in the WV run. But they are all 3/4 or near 3/4 inch size. I am not sure of any 7/8 Jabo like these but possible ? This is why I ask the size. When I saw them I automatic thought Jabo WV run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted May 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2021 I need my calipers which are buried. I know 3/4 and 7/8 can make all the difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted May 29, 2021 Report Share Posted May 29, 2021 Another good question might be, how long have you had that marble? And what year was that JABO WV run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted May 29, 2021 Report Share Posted May 29, 2021 The Jabo run was about 2009. If 3/4 or just a little over ? They are likely Jabo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted May 29, 2021 Report Share Posted May 29, 2021 If that's what it is, Ron, that might explain why I thought I saw one in your collection. I probably did, just not in an Alley case. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted May 29, 2021 Report Share Posted May 29, 2021 I'm not positive, but I think Ron is referring to the JABO WVMC Run, which was in 2011. Here is a photo of a boxed set of the marbles from a recent @Columbusrockhound EBay Auction: Given that the diameter of the Quarter is just under 1", I'd guess the marbles are at least 7/8".

Fire1981 Posted May 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2021 Just under an inch for sure. I have to say I know for certain it is not Jabo glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
