Vacor Roosters--love em,
These were and are made in a variety of runs and the colors that I show are just a small example of the shades and fill. Some of these base colors I could swear are orange.
They all have one thing in common—the lack of a bubble filled base glass. The red is very clear and well made while the white has a tendency to run or melt/spread on the surface. The Vacor website claims that these have “Orange Swirls” but I have not seen any on the surface—just buried under the “Red”.
I will include an image of akro vs these—the last one.
Marble—On!!

Akro marketed "Cardinal Reds" in a box marked as such in both slags and corkscrews--be carefull while looking.

Killer marbles, both of the styles.

Marble--On!!
