I have 3 antique 1gal mason jars filled with my hard won pre-1970 marbles, all sizes, painted, clearsies, croakers, cats eyes, with a few clay and ball bearings thrown in. Unfortunately, destined for eBay or a yard sale one of these days. They made for a pretty decoration over the last ~55 years.

I played in the 80s. My bf played in middle school which for him would have been the 90s. He's from TX and I would have been playing in NC. Wonder if area has to do with it?

Maybe. The rural areas might have kept interest in it longer. I don't know how long kids kept playing it here. So many cool toys were coming out at the time, marbles probably looked pretty dull.
