Is this Vacor Cat's Eye?

I am new to Marble Attribution and looking for confirmation or correction: 

I think this is a
 
6 VEIN (the veins go to the poles)

Caged Cat's Eye 

Could it be by Vacor?

 
0.625"
 
I know the marble is from the early 1970s or earlier (my kids played with it in the late 1970s)

Vitro caged cat IMO

Thank you! Is the reason you say Vitro because the veins appear to end at polar seams? I cannot see a seam, but the linear correlation of the ends along a line suggest there might be one. Is that your clue for Vitro? I have this sketch in mind:

Here is a detail photo of the area (within the ellipse) I am wondering if it can be defined as a seam:

For Vacor, I was focusing on the bubbles within the clear base.

Lol🤪--- you mean your are starting a marble addiction right?

Welcome Pete2226 to "TheMarbleConnection" the oldest marble board on Planet Earth--maybe the whole Galaxy:clap2:.

I may be mental here-- but my first thought was Peltier Rainbo:character-smileys-238:.

Both Vitro and Peltier made some very strong--"well cooked" transparent glass.

I have been wrong before--before--before this. (many times before this)

I can take my lumps and move on.

Just food for thought.

Marble--On!!
