Good one man !!

 

Your top pic appears to be a Master, & I'm not positive on the second ?? Hang in there, you'll get there, wherever there is ??

 

Christensen Striped Transparent

Transparent colored glass with stripes of opaque white or another opaque coloron or near the surface only. Examples of the opaque colors going inside the marble are called submarines and are very, very rare.

Slags are a single stream of transparent glass with opaque white swirled in, on the surface and in almost every case inside the marble as well.

Christensen double seam Slag

Christensen Submarine (very, very rare)

Once you hold one of these in your hand you'll never forget or mistake them again, the same with a striped transparent, though there are some German machine mades that come close, there is usually a much larger gap at the seams of the German made striped transparents or striped opaque's, alot to soak in I know but with your amount of enthusiasm you'll get there

I always thought being a Meteorologist in Tuscon would be one the easiest jobs out there. Hot and sunny 102-106 degrees for the next 3 months. Clear and Sunny for the next 16 months.

I don't think I have any submarines,  I do have quite a few of those exact slag marbles. I actually have a whole bunch of other slags too. I will try to dig them out tonight or tomorrow and post some pics. The very top one you posted, I have one just like the but it is dark green.

Yes the base glass comes in many other transparent colors, just like a slag, Christensen submarines are (Extremely rare) %& very expensive. They hardly ever come up for sale.
