Product Information

The hobby of marble collecting is still in its infancy, with plenty of room for growth in all areas and for new collectors. Marble Maniar is the definitive photographic guide to collecting. This book incorporates over 1,300 color photographs, as well as an in-depth text covering the main areas of interests and information on marble manufacturers. Here are marbles made of stone, minerals, and materials other than glass; early handmade, machine-made, and contemporary handmade glass marbles; games, toys, and other uses for marbles. A glossary of terms; bibliography; lists of clubs, societies, marbles shows; and a list of museums with marble collections are included as well as a list of winners of the U. S. National Marble Tournaments since their inception. A value guide is included for each marble shown.

  • A really good reference book!!

    Really good information on manufacturers and various types of marbles and spheres. It contains at least an introduction of nearly every kind of marble I've run across, plus some others that I haven't. This is not the easiest book to find, but it is a great reference source! I could not get this one at my library, so I decided to order it on-line. Those of us who like marbles will find this to be a very useful book!

  • Marbles Mania

    Very well liked seen book before and said I have to get it and was so glad I found it on line. Book stores said they where out and none in warehouse.

  • A marble collectors coffee table book.

    A large and well organized book with 240 pages. There are many illustrations to show the many different varieties of each category. Though it does not concentrate on any particular marble, it does give a broad understanding and and history of all marble types throughout history. Excellent companion.
