marblenewbie Posted February 2, 2023 Report Share Posted February 2, 2023 I'm sure this is an Akro, but am confused by the possibilities. Measures .68 and from looking at references it appears to be an Akro Ringer or a Cherry Ade. A couple of other possibilities but I believe these are the two closest. Hope someone can pinpoint it.

I went through the same pain of trying to get a Jabo to be an Akro----many, many times. This one is not an Akro—it is a Jabo imho---or a late Vitro—pretty much the same after Jabo purchased Vitro. Jabo “Classics” do show up with cut-lines and they can sometimes fool the very best. Get a feel for these Jabo types. The glass is just different; you can almost feel it with your eyes closed after awhile. They, (Jabo) made some very nice marbles—just not an Akro. All opinions are welcomed and appreciated. Marble—On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marblenewbie Posted February 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2023 That's disappointing. How about this one came in the same find, but it appears more Pelt like than anything at .62. The base glass is getting me confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted February 3, 2023 Report Share Posted February 3, 2023 That’s a Rainbo with a good example of the Pelt seams and ribbon alignment 🔥 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marblenewbie Posted February 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2023 Thanks everyone I'll put both in Pelt storage. Should the first one be classified as a Rainbo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
