Marble games have been played in all parts of the world with all manner of playing pieces for more than 2000 years. Children in colonial America played with marbles made of stone or clay, while glass marbles were highly prized among children’s playthings in the 19th century. Enclosure games, hole games, and conquering games are all traditional marble games that are still familiar today.
Our game of Glass Marbles contains 30 traditional glass target marbles and 2 traditional glass shooters, of assorted rainbow, cats-eye, and crystal colors. Each set of marbles is poly bagged, then pouched as described, with a hang tag with history and instructions.
