Urbana man builds empire of marbles at market booth
Urbana resident John Hammer collects and trades marbles, now numbering over 5,000. He buys thousands weekly, offers glass candy jars of marbles at 10 for 1, and can command up to 10 000 for a rare sulfide mable. Hammer started to fill a void after quitting smoking and drinking and says marbles appeal for price and action. His wife Rebecca Anne tolerates the hobby as he promotes his card “You Look Marble-less.”
