Fire1981 Posted September 18, 2021 Report Share Posted September 18, 2021 Really ? No one else is gonna take a crack at this one ? I’m not going to list names but you guys seem to be MIA on this one. I could say something stupid and call it a Cats Eye. My second thought is a sloppy lazy corkscrew. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted September 18, 2021 Report Share Posted September 18, 2021 Alley swirl for me. Common color combination for Alley Pennsboro and St.Marys sites. Cairo probably had this blue color but so did about every machine made marble maker. The swirl pattern is a little to busy and all over, for most Cairo Novelty marbles. Cairo did not have many blue base marbles, not the numbers of blue base like Alley. Alley probably used blue more than any other color. Some of these blue base and olive green/little white, will have the gold lutz or aventurine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted September 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 Thanks for all of the input. Lets revisit this one just to make sure. The blue is not opaque as shown in the following images. I backlit the images on a light board. Thanks for taking another look. Marble--On!!!
