Oxbood..

The first one I already know is an Akron silver oxblood. I just included it because it's a super nice specimen and I wanted to show it off. Heh. I'll edit these posts to include sizes once I get back home and have a chance to measure them. In the meantime though, thanks for looking!

I prolly should have clarified.. I know that they all have oxblood for sure. Just curious as to possible manufacturers. I figured the fact they all had oxblood on them made for a nice way to lump them all together in one post. 😇                              But thank you for the reply anyways Tommy! 😊

Good one to question, Chad, because it's a JABO.

The only thing I can tell  you about this run is that Ed Parsons (RIP) had a hand in it.

Thanks Ric, if Dustin never would have taken that shot of the infamous Jabo "butcrack" I would have been calling it an Akro (maybe?) By the way, 'nice box of mibs" :thup:

That's funny. I didn't even notice that. I can usually spot a typical Jabo a mile away. This one slipped right past me. Prolly was the oxblood that tripped me up. Thanks for all the discussion everyone! I really appreciate the help. 😁

I hate to disagree with the ID on the last one or the "outlier".

I have seen enough Akro oxblood patches to see this as one and call it one. The Ox Patches that Akro made really have no ryhme or reason to them and I would not doubt that this was one given that I have been trying to backfill some boxes with them for that last two years and have seen many variations. Some of them are great and some of them really suck--The nature of Oxblood is what I suspect---it really does what it wants to.

IMHO,

Marble--On!!
