Jzoook6 Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 I found these hiding in my purple solid opaque pile--whoops. Are they Jabo? The swirl kinda looks like a WV other than that horseshoe buttcrack tho 🤔 .61 Thanks in advance for any thoughts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 I will copy a saying from my neighbors to the west in Minnesota and say oof-dah!!! These both look like WVS—I do not see Jabo here. Nice marbles for sure!! I just wish that I could help with an ID. Marble—on!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 No JABOs here that I can see - the first one looks sorta brick-ish, IMO. I'd like to see more and different views of each. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK thanks I just think of Jabo now when I see a pretty purple marble🤷♀️ I was going to ask about whether it was a brick but I didn't want to get ahead of myself. Yes I will do better photos sorry they are so rough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so quick Jzoook6, You have two totally different marbles here by two different makers. If there is an Alley it would be the first one imho. There is no “brick” here—just some very fine looking purple based/swirled marbles which are rare enough on their own. Purple is a rare color in a vintage marble only outdone rarity wise by pink. This is my opinion and I appreciate them all ---opinions ---regardless. Marble—On!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jzoook6 Posted January 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 These are only slightly better sorry. Apparently I have 3 of the "brick" looking ones. IMG_3442.HEIC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't a clue who made the "bricks" but I think the more eggplant-colored one could be Alley or Ravenswood? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 I love a good "Brick" and you should keep searching, because when you find one--you will get "hooked". The ultimate in oxblood—just the tops! Try to get one in bad shape and work up from there. I love them all, regardless of damage. Yours are all Jabo, the one with pink involved may not be—but I doubt that---it may just be a later version or a "Contract run Marble. If you want a starter “Brick” PM me and I will send you one. No kidding—just a brick lover to another. Marble—On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
