Block's Marble Auction #1134
Auction of 350 lots of antique, vintage and contemporary handmade and machine made marbles, related items and Paperweights.
This auction features the full collection of Reverand Ann Thacker, with select additions to balance out the categories.
Reverend Thacker collected mostly handmade marbles. When we questioned her on how she started collecting marbles she replied "Forty-two years ago, a friend?s father passed on. He left her a weathered, leather bag. Tentatively, we opened it. Out spilled the most beautiful marbles I?d ever seen. As a kid in the 40?s, I played marbles; but these were different! After doing research, I began my own 40-year treasure hunt. The variety of marbles you see today are the result. Some are perfect, some are less so; but each one is a treasure ? that has been well-loved! Now, it?s time to share their beauty. May they bring you much joy!!!".
