I'd keep the vitros (especially the big ones with more than 2 colors) from hitting against the others and getting damaged. They aren't worth much now, but vitros are gaining in popularity and increasing in value. Not long ago they were slingshot ammo, and as bad as clearies and game marbles to collectors. Now they have a spot in most collections. Give it another 10 years and who knows. Even some cateyes are worth good money these days.

In the upper right picture, there is a row of five marbles. Just to the left of the 3rd marble in that row is an Akro Agate Helmet Marble. That may not be the proper name but that's what many of us call them. They are very common, not much value. I do not see anything else of interest.
