a Peltier? It was listed a *Peltier Eggyolk*. This is 3/4" and very different. The CAC is 17/32" and sweeeet Razz Opinions are welcome on both. I do think it is a Peltier though...

#2 i believe is a vitro superior, formerly known as the "mystery patch"

(notice how the colors match up on either side of the marble...a pelt would most likely be flipped)

If being a Vitro, Chris, how common/or uncommon is this at 3/4" size?
Thanks!

Kris,
I collect those Vitros and I have only one true 3/4" of that type. Larger ones are harder to find typically, specially in mint condition.

This one just a couple of small fea bites, otherwise the surface is quite nice. Sami, thanks a lot for the information.

The second one is definately a Vitro Tri-Lite Superior. Superiors were named by Chuck Brandstettera and his wife. They are very hard to find in larger sizes.

There is a great article on Superiors, Buttermilks, and Aqua Marines in the WVMCC Newsletter by Chuck Brandstetter. The Club board has authorized the release of back issues on CD. We are almost through with the digitizing process and will be getting info out very soon on how to order a disk.

Thanks again..
