        useful for reference and just life-like to use

        The book is easy to understand and very comprehensive. I like the pictures that match up with my marbles so I know what I have and have some idea of their values. It also covers a broad spectrum of makers of marbles which is great. All in all, a quality reference product!

      • Good for Basic ID

        Helpful for basic identification of "groups/types" of marbles. But more specific information is needed to ID individual marbles. The pictures are not quite enough.
