Ric Posted August 13, 2021 Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 Not many of the JABO Classics or specific Contract Run marbles have names, as far as I know. It might be fun trying to assemble a list of the named examples though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted August 13, 2021 Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 Way to many to name for me, with several different runs the sheer numbers are boggling, a big undertaking for sure !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted August 13, 2021 Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 OK two questions, I do not talk face to face with marble collectors so bear with me. I am a classic "closet collector" that has recently broke out of his box a tad. Is it Job-o or Jay-boy for pronunciating it correctly? Is the term "Classic Jabo" a collector’s term and is it referring to the early Jabo marbles that were usually filled with little white hit marks? Marble--on!! And Closet --on!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was really thinking only about specifically named JABO Classic marbles, like Hot Tamale, Ghost, Tie-Dye, Sweet Potato Pie, etc. I might be wrong, but I don't think there are that many specifically-named JABO Classics. 12 minutes ago, akroorka said: OK two questions, I do not talk face to face with marble collectors so bear with me.

It's JAY-BOW as in BlueJAY and RainBOW. Classics are the marbles that JABO manufactured for play from about 1992-2007 and, yes, many of the larger ones had little white hit marks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvrons Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 Jabo= Jaybow. Not Jawbow. The Jabo classic marbles are marbles produced by them before 2008. The Jabo Classic name was by the company not collectors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for asking this question. I too don't hear the words being spoken so when talking about it I would always say, "Jay-Bo . . . Jab-o ... how ever it is pronounced." Now I don't have to use so many words.LOL! Some of my favorite marbles are Jabos. Especially the classics made of transparent colored glass and UV glass. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
