Identification summary

The Marble King Bumblebee is a classic machine-made patch marble. While the standard version features a yellow base with black patches, the 'Rainbow' line often incorporated white and occasionally bleeding colors like purple or dark blue where the black dye reacted with the glass base. At 0.69 inches, this is a slightly oversized 'player' marble, approaching shooter size.
