Hello, thanks for writing in. I'm afraid we don't have an exact match for your vent stop. The best substitute I could find is our 26-275. Look it over and see what you think. 

A quick learner from Pa says:
I currently have Marvin essential double hung windows which do not currently have vent stops but would like to add them. Could you please let me know if you would have a product to work with this. I was thinking the 26-275 unit and mounting it on the inside of the window opening which the window frame is recessed in. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm afraid the 26-275 was not meant to work mounted on the side like you describe. That's not to say that it can't function, but I've never tried it before and I can't tell you how well it would work.

We also sell the 26-387 vent latch kit. These can mount on certain window frames, depending on space available. The video below will show you how they work, so you can judge for yourself whether it would be compatible with your frame.

Lastly, at the end of the day it's very possible that none of these parts will work. Marvin windows can be a little specific and in most cases you need to contact them directly for products that would be compatible with your windows. You may want to do that before you buy anything from us.
