Thank you cheese for the help thus far in identifying some of the marbles that were found in my attic.
There were a few steel balls in the pouch that I imagine crushed a few marbles back in the day. I also came across 4 larger sized marbles that made me think "shooter." There were also a few smaller sized marbles. Were these called "minis?"

Yeah the steel ones are ball bearings. The blue one with it I can't tell what it is.
The next group from the top down is West Virginia swirl, Peltier rainbo, possibly another pelt rainbo, and I can't tell what the last one is from that pic.
Next group looks like mostly chinese checker marbles.
Next group first is an Alley, then a Vitro conqueror, then possibly a Vitro, then a Vitro conqueror.
Next group is a lot of 4 Marble King bumblebees.
Last group is some Marble King cateyes and a Marble King rainbo shooter and two smaller Alley swirls.
The big ones are shooters, regular sized ones are players, and the ones under 1/2" are called peewees.

Thanks again Mr. cheese,
I have a drawer full of Marbles that I dug up.
It's time to take a look at them.
