manddrakes Posted Wednesday at 03:16 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 03:16 AM We need the slag master here... "Slagmarbles" It rare today's, but back in the day they were on the bay in the 1 1/4" to 1 5/8". Mainly brown, but there was a couple red if I remember correctly? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted Wednesday at 03:31 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 03:31 AM There was large red, mostly hand gathered Akro, which also exhibits a 9 pattern like a lot of the early hand gathered slags. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad G. Posted Wednesday at 06:01 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 06:01 AM Akro IMO, just my opinion 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manddrakes Posted Wednesday at 06:22 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 06:22 AM Does have the Akro corkscrew color, but I'm a believer in a red M.F. Christenson and sons hand gathered red slag in the large size. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheese Posted Wednesday at 08:01 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 08:01 AM No MFC reds. They kept meticulous records of their products and red is never mentioned in their inventory of marbles. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you asked for an opinion and you got one from one of the more highly regarded collectors in Chad. None of us are "masters", per say....very, and I mean VERY few collectors have been honored with having been considered a "master"...most of us know some, a large handful might know a bunch, and a select few will know most, and Chad has been doing this longer than most of us here...but there isn't a collector out there that knows everything. Now that would be a true Master IMO.... The op is an Akro IMO.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what makes marbling great! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
