Quick Tip

The most valuable marbles are pre-1950's. Collectors are looking for marbles made in the late 1800's through the 1940's.


Why? It was about 1950 that the Japanese started making the cat-eye style marbles. These popular marbles were very cheap to buy and put most of the remaining marble companies in the U.S.A. out of business.

How Do You Determine Value?

Please note: The approximate values I quote are based on the current marble market based on eBay sales and marble shows. I attend approximately six marble shows a year around the USA. The current collectibles market has dropped significantly due to the economy and marble prices have also fallen.

If you are comparing my appraisal to book values realize that most of these books are older and prices for some of the marbles may have gone up and many may have gone down since publishing.
