Ric Posted May 1, 2022 Report Share Posted May 1, 2022 Maybe a JABO "tankwash"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted May 1, 2022 Report Share Posted May 1, 2022 High chance being one of the many Jabo tank wash. Many of the tank wash marbles were made on the transparent blue base industrial marbles. Some of them were very nice. Some of the industrial marbles were almost clear and just slight blue, some were darker transparent blue. Some were shades of transparent green. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted May 1, 2022 Report Share Posted May 1, 2022 WOW! I had no idea Jabo made marbles like this. I guess I always thought they were all swirls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall reading that these Jabo tank-wash marbles were not too successful and that one in this shape is a great find. Regardless, it is a very nice looker. Marble—On!!

wvrons Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 Most of the Jabo tank wash marbles were either plain or very nice and some bright unusual color combinations. The tank wash marbles each time were all small numbers. A normal run was 2000lbs. The tank wash was from 100lbs. to 300lb.s . Not every investor run had a tank wash before the run. The vast majority of marbles produced at Jabo were swirl style. But very little 100% with marbles. There were a few times at Jabo when ribbon or patch and ribbon style were produced in small numbers, After Dave McCullough left in 2012, there were a couple runs which looked very close to 5/8 opaque Vitros. Jabo and Marble King- Dave and Beri had a agreement that Dave would make the swirls and Beri would make the ribbon or patch and ribbon style, as MK had done since they began making marbles. After Dave left Jabo, more two cut lines and ribbon Jabo marbles were made. Jabo or Marble King could make either style marbles. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvrons Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 Compared to the Jabo swirls, yes the Jabos with 2 cut lines and ribbons are far less numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da Roberto Posted May 3, 2022 Report Share Posted May 3, 2022 4 hours ago, cheese said: Quello è un JABO Da Roberto? Di sicuro? Oops, I don't want to be wrong now! It was given to me when I bought a jabo in the past, (but I didn't attribute it to jabo for that) the color tone and especially the pink part seemed unusual to me for an original MK. I can't be 100% sure but I'd love to have your opinion too .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da Roberto Posted May 7, 2022 Report Share Posted May 7, 2022 Ah ok, good to know, the rosy part of this made me think of a possible creation of jabo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
