Kokomo Shooters

Does anyone have any ? I’ve never seen one.

The only picture that I have is one of Chuck B's in a case that he had.  He was pretty sharp on Kokomo's.

Which one is it? How can I identify a Kokomo?

Thanks Al ! It looks like what I would call a horseshoe ribbon (FWIW) as a possible Kokomo trait.

Everything in the case  is Kokomo. Chuck had the largest collection or variety of Kokomo marbles that I have seen. He had the original mesh bags and original box sets.   Many are the same traits as Peltier like the white/blue ones bottom right corner. Some reminded me of Vitro Anacortes. Some single ribbons were close to Parkersburg Vitros. Many of what Chuck had were dug at the factory site. I think some were from a past employee. He had a few pistol cases of them.

I’ve spent the better part of my morning looking through all that’s been provided about Kokomo’s. Thanks for all the information. I’ll be on the search for these now! ❤️

Collect whatever makes "You Happy" Something I was told a long time ago and has held true & kept me going. Doesn't matter what everyone else collects. Over time though I've grown fond of all marbles, the best part by far is the people I've met, my "Marble Friends"  & a hobby that has lasted well over 2 thirds of my life   ....
