  • BIG BOOK OF MARBLES

    excellent book about collecting antique handmade and machine made marbles. not the first book of Everett Grist that I have, he sold me his book for his cost in 1993. Gave me sound advice over many years. well written. Pictures of marbles: excellent. johnkelly205.

  • good buy

    I took out 1st ed. from library and saw alot of marbles that helped me identify some of mine so I ordered this 2nd volume...it seemed like the second volume had more pictures of sets and antique marbles.
