schmoozer Posted April 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2022 I bought a quart jar today for $18, had a bunch of vitro in it, an agate, 1 AKRO cork, 1 pelt Rainbo, a couple swirls, 1 CAC, and 2 small slags. Weird grouping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvrons Posted April 15, 2022 Report Share Posted April 15, 2022 Sure look Vitro to me. Colors all fit Vitro. The V o r U pattern fits Vitro. The cut lines look Vitro. Looks like same time frame as the Parrots. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schmoozer Posted April 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2022 Is this a common Vitro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted April 15, 2022 Report Share Posted April 15, 2022 I don't think you will find them every month on Ebay. Or at one show but two or three shows and you might find these same ones ? Are they high dollar, no, probably $2.00-$5.00 each at shows and $10.00-$15.00 each on Ebay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmoozer Posted April 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2022 Ok, thanks. I had looked at the Vitro ID page and came up empty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted April 15, 2022 Report Share Posted April 15, 2022 Most of the marbles in the Vitro guide on AAM have names. These do not have a name. The guide probably only covers 1/4 or 1/3 of all the different marbles Vitro produced. Vitro probably had more marbles named by the company than any of the other machine made companies. But they are one of longest life machine made companies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmoozer Posted April 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2022 Turns out the jar is a Ball “Perfect Mason”, #12. One sold for almost $50 with shipping, so $18 was a good deal! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The veneer is thicker, much thicker; the colors are not like a common Vitro color—close but less pronounced or vibrant. The marbles have full coverage in most cases with no clear or whispy showing, although a few do have the recognizable Vitro clear with a wispy look. These are from 4 different lots that I have hunted over the past 25 years. Two sizes so far, 3/4'” and 5/8”. Steph thought that some of them may be some form of a "Bullseye" when I posted them back in July. Marble--On!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
