Djp5690 Posted June 5, 2025 Report Share Posted June 5, 2025 ok. So I kind of found a system although the first pic looks real washed out compared to the second two. I know more pics would be better, but I salvaged what I could. Abd at this point, the pic taking practice is just as helpful as the id’s for me. 😆 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted June 5, 2025 Report Share Posted June 5, 2025 When you're taking pics, the simplest way to check your result is to look at the marble on your monitor and compare it to the marble in-hand. If they are different, take another picture. For a proper ID, it's often important that details of the pattern are clear and the colors are correct. Knowing the size can be helpful too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted June 5, 2025 Report Share Posted June 5, 2025 The "New marbles" in your topic made me laugh, you sound like some of the German hand-made collector's I know. To them, anything machine-made is a "new marble". 😄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted June 6, 2025 Report Share Posted June 6, 2025 I'd say the 1st is Alley and 3rd-4th are Ravenswood. The 2nd may be Alley too. This is assuming they are all around 5/8". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m assuming these are, indeed, all vintage! 😆 but yes, perhaps poorly worded. Other than pic 1, this is probably a semi-solid representation of what these look like in hand. Thank you, and yea… all 5/8. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
