Mothra Posted May 27, 2023 Report Share Posted May 27, 2023 I bought a jar of old marbles… I’m not sure about them, as I know very little about marbles. I tried to pick out some of what I thought were the more unusual ones and took a lot of pictures. Any help with ID would be greatly appreciated. I also want to learn which ones I should keep vs giving to my nieces to play with. Thank you in advance for the help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbernugs Posted May 27, 2023 Report Share Posted May 27, 2023 Greetings! You've got quite the variety of marbles there. This forum is wonderful for helping with IDs. It will make it a lot easier all around if you post small groups of 2 - 4. You'll get more responses. You're doing great with pics and numbering them!

Kimbernugs Posted May 27, 2023 Report Share Posted May 27, 2023 4 and 6 are newer Imperials and not valuable. 17 is a Vitro All Red. 22 is a Vitro Conquerer. 25 and 26 foreign cats eye. 29 Vitro hybrid cats eye. 31 Vitro cats eye. These are the ones I'm pretty certain of. But I'm still learning myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akroorka Posted May 27, 2023 Report Share Posted May 27, 2023 #28 and # 30 are more than likely Vitro “Horsehoe catseyes”. #1 could be one from a variety of makers—no ID will be produced here. #24—I think that you have two separate marbles here, top and bottom are not the same marble imho. #23 well it could be a Pelt Rainbo---maybe— Marble—On!!
