Found this bag 

Now some patch and ribbons i posted here starting to make sense now to me  

When i started collecting i posted many of these types,   i think some friends here remember that 

For me its an eye opener 

Enjoy the pictures and hope this will help a lot of people here sorting their marbles and give them the right ID 

Enjoy !! , Marble On !!! 🤹

Great info, Joep - thanks for posting it! This may well solve some mysteries.

I'd appreciate a closer shot of the label - I can't quite make out all of the writing . . . 🙂

A quick search revealed a few more "Eagle" branded packages . . .

 Even though it says "Glass Eagle" I suspect Vacor or an affiliate thereof ?? But then again I don't really know   some just look oddly familiar ??

The marbles are from the late 60's maybe early 70's, the Aguila stopped operating at the beginning of that decade and Vacor began its operations in 1974, in fact the first Vacor labels are identical to those of the Aguila, Only the logo of the Eagle changes to that of the Child within the triangle playing and colored blue / white and black , i am trying to get a better picture of the headercard as we speak , and added some pictures where the child / marbles logo is on , you can see it also on the older display box , later it changed in Don Juan and now they have a colofull logo

Great stuff, Joep, thanks for the additions. I am not sure why the info you posted showed up in a text box but the scrolling bugs me so I am repeating it here. 🙂

Bam Joep 💥💥💥💥 always wondered when you would find a bag of those vitro looking mibs...great score and information 👍

[stephenb]

Good stuff Joep ! 
Here’s a few more El Aguila products, including a Chinese Checker box. They said making opaque red glass for the game marbles became too expensive and time consuming, so they bailed on the Chinese Checker sets before long.

Found some more 

Will post detailed pictures later 🤹

In the last video from Stephan Barr they said that Vacor started 1970.
