Marble Collection

My husband has managed to keep his marbles, even though he has been married to me and is 50 this year. (teehee). This is just a snapshot of the biscuit tin they are kept in which is 4" deep and full of them (it weighs so heavy). The girls when growing up did not bother playing with them, not like us parents we had great fun playing a game of marbles in the street, and winning your opponents stash to further your collection. I suppose they will stay in the loft till one day we may get some grand children to pass them on to.

This is a bad shot of them this is how they should look see McDawgs Marble Madness

Does anyone remember the marbles that looked like they was made of clay?
