Greeneyesgreenthumbs Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 Obviously looks like a helmet Patch but I haven’t seen one in pink. Pink seems rare in general Ive seen a little here or there by different mfgs nothing in big numbers though. I know Vitro did tons of helmets and I’ve seen the pattern in Akros but I’m never 100% on the make, Vitro or Akro? so any help here is appreciated. Now, all that typed, this Helmet marble Being a scarce color like I think these are, is there a name that’s been associated with the colors or pattern other than “Helmet Patch” ? None the less it’s a nice one to share and look at JMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greeneyesgreenthumbs Posted June 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 It’s a looker for sure. I’ve always thought the patch was more Akro’ish than Vitro But after being wrong so many times..... thanks for y’all’s input I appreciate it big!

wvrons Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 Akro patch. Akro's like these are what caused the confusion for years as to which company made the named style helmet marbles . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVRon, I received so much misinformation on Helmets, so off base. I always felt like Akro Had the Original Pattern Then Vitro Made theirs later. I try to use Colors to distinguish between the two particularly the tone in color. It’s not 100% but it’s a good starting point usually. But the pink in this one with gold Orange and black is a scheme I haven’t seen in these before. When I first got this one I actually thought it might be a Peltier and then I woke up. But I’ve viewed so many Vitros being labeled Akro maybe an attempt to increase the value of their Marble? Who knows. Thanks for all the replies y’all this was fun! - Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
