Love the older Vitros! The vibrant colors and signature Vitro thick paintlike striations are a stunning combination

Hi Stephen -- any chance on a Vitro update? I still watch your marble videos over and over. I learn something new each time. Your videos are a godsend for the beginning collector. Hope all is well with you.

אני כשהייתי קטנה שיחקתי בגבולות מערבל והיום אני מוקסמת מהאוסף לו, לנו אף פעם לא היו כאלו יפים כל הכבוד

Great video I like the way you displayed them on the multi holed round flower frog and flat candle holders super idea being the marbles stay put in the holes. I am going to look for some of them in antique and thrift stores as well as yard sales to display some of my marbles. Thanks for the information clear photos. Peace and be good to each other. Stay safe stay inside flatten the curve save lives.

Great video Stephen as always, i had just purchased 57 TRUE wedding cake vitro 1 inch marbles this morning. I'm so excited to have them in hand. If you don't have one in your collection of old vitro's i'd gladly send you one if you use a p.o. box. Please let me know brother.

Found a Vitro Blue Helmet Marble with the blue patch in the shape of a heart, also has a cloudy red streak around the blue & cloudy white streak around the red, and just opposite the blue is clear ... being able to see the backside of the blue heart.
I'm guessing it's a Vitro.
Never seen one like it.
Found in bottle dump in San Antonio, TX

Thanks for the great videos Stephen! I am wondering if you have done a video talking about the measurements of the marbles to help determine and identify them? You really do make learning and collecting marbles interesting, I have learned so much in the past couple of weeks

Very Nice!! Love all the different veriations of Vitro's. Great video

I don't use conqueror in my names for the older Vitro types. I just call them Vitro Exotics and Vitro Fancys. The names Victory and Conqueror were given to two new marble types named in honor of America's place in WWll and to the veterans that secured that place. These names should stand where they were issued. Conqueror is too hard to spell and has too many letters to type anyway. Nice video, Steve.

Hello, I have a question. Can you tell me the difference between a helmet, vitro, and a TV master. So appreciate you and your videos. I go over and over them trying to learn. Thank you

[bazookab]

Quick question. When you are covering the Parrots towards the end of the video. In the same glass plate there's a blue based marble that is not the "Blue Devil". It kind of looks like a Master Marble blue based brushed patch marble. Did Vitro make a marble like that as well?

I live about a 3 min walk to the old Vitro Marble co in Parkersburg WV

I bought a "buttermilk" not too long ago on eBay and I guess it is not a buttermilk after all. It was under 20 bucks so I think I could have done worse, right? Thanks for your videos! I'm learning a lot!
