MyDadLovedMarbles Posted July 12, 2023 Report Share Posted July 12, 2023 I'm here because I want to see more of the marble world my dad loved. Some of you might of heard of him! My dad was Larry Castle. He wrote some marble books, made marbles, and polished them. I inherited some of his personal collection and some of his handmade. I am not an expert by any means, so please don't expect me to know anything about marbles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to the Marble Connection. Your father is very well known in the marble community and I have enjoyed his books for many years. But I only spoke with him at a couple of shows so I did not know him well. It sure would be fun and interesting to see the marbles or related items you have from his collection so please feel free to start a thread and post any photos you might care to share. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carowill Posted July 14, 2023 Report Share Posted July 14, 2023 Welcome. Your father’s books helped get me started in my love of marbles. He was an important influencer and left a great legacy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frigidigital Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 I recently acquired this box that reads "Hand-made marbles by Larry Castle". I thought this would be an appropriate place to share this. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
