Oxblood August, It kind-of rhymes.

Vitro oxblood I do believe. 

It's a decent Aquamarine, Tommy. The red/brown color on them varies a lot and some of them do have oxblood. But I agree with Chad on this one - I'm not seeing it.

I am convinced that Vitro never intentionally made oxblood so any that do have it are fortuitous and very uncommon.

These Akro vs MFC bricks can be hard to determine between the two makers.
Akro did make some hand-gathered bricks that look awful like an MFC brick.
Experts are out there, and I am not one of them. I just love bricks.
Thanks for sharing them.

My first post, just in time for Oxblood August! I just picked up these bricks and am thinking they are either M.F.Christensen or Akro- correct? And how do you tell the difference between the 2 companies? The bigger 2 are 3/4" and the other 3 are 5/8".

Does anyone know who made these cats-eye marbles with oxblood?  

I will take a guess that these were made in England.

Pretty darned cool!

Nice pair of marbles there!!
