Welcome to the Croquet Page!

 

After seeing a blog on social media in reference to Mr. Herbert playing croquet on Saturday nights, a question of "Where is Mr. Herbert's industrial handmade croquet set?" was raised. Here is the blog content; "Herby was part of a group of us that played croquet nearly every Saturday night. In nice weather it was played on an outdoor-back yard court on South Park Drive and if we couldn't play outside we played on a court was in Herb's basement. We played for blood!!!!, friendly blood, and I'm the last player left. Saturday nights playing croquet with Herb are some great memories." - Bill.

The MJ Herbert family was contacted and was unable to find the set. After a freak encounter by a family member a few days later in Caldwell, KS, the family was able to make contact with the person who purchased it in the Herbert estate sale! Croquet Set Found (5/18/2018)! See the pictures below to see the croquet set in action and its present day picture!
