You sure saved the best for last imho.

I do not recall seeing anything like it before--Top Notch!

Marble--On!!

You nailed it, thank you Art! It's the only one like it I have, that is a special Special.
I do have three Yellow and Green Prize Names, but none like that one above.

Hey Wolf--nice marble.

This one displays the difference between "Popeyes" of the same color combo.

Some are just--"yep a Popeye" and some are just "Wow--what a "Popeye".

The yellow and green in this one knock it up a notch or two.

Great marble!!

Nice images! (Crop them a bit more--in the future)

Thanks for sharing it.

Thanks, I really like the green/yellow ones, especially the more rare intricate ones. The pictures are from the seller. He offered 32 for it so I had to jump. He described it as "superb early Akro example". Mint. .65 I think I see two shades of yellow?

Well worth only 32 dollars. I will get better pictures when it arrives.

Here it is. A couple of tiny pin pricks but well worth a unique green and yellow at 32. I think I see a different shade of yellow. Darker.

Akro Friday!

1.  Just a brilliant Orange on a translucent bubbly base 5/8"
2.  Orange and Blue, there's that thin blue stripe  5/8"
3.  A Green Perfection and a harder to find larger size 23/32"
4.  This one is very unusual, Orange cork on a Blue transparent base, but the internal structure is what mesmerizes me 21/32"
5. Orange with a little bit of transparent Brown on bubbles 19/32"

Correct, #4 is really rare, really beautiful. Somewhat reminds me of the Oklahoma City Thunder's colors and I'm a OKC fan. Go Thunder, go blue/orange with wispy blue marble!
