Lures- Fly Fishing
Progressing from simple implements of bone, stone, and
wood to metals to the elaborately feathered flies of the
Victorian era, antique fishing lures are now sought as
highly prized collectibles. This edition has hundreds of
new photographs and much new information not included in
the first edition. Chapters include the 'big ten'
companies, miscellaneous companies, metal lures,
handmade lures, and finally the seldom seen experimental
lures. Concerned primarily with the most colectible
antique fishing lures made before 1940, this deluxe
hardbound book contains well over 1,300 lures
beautifully reproduced in full color. Research and
identification will be simple yet effective with these
descriptions, sizes, dates, 2001 values, and quck
comparisons of similar features of lures.. AUTHORBIO:
Dudley Murphy decided to become a lifelong collector of
fishing lures at the age of 13, when his grandfather
presented him with a gift of old Heddon, Jamison, and
Clark lures. As one of the three founders of the
National Fishing Lure Collector's Club, Dudley is an
active collector with a variety of interest, including
fishing. AUTHORBIO: Rick Edmisten was introduced to
fishing at age 12 by his father, and by the time he was
18 had developed a keen interest in collecting old lures
and tackle. He has hosted a successful fishing tackle
collectible show from 1990 to the present, and is
recognized as an authority on old tackle. He often
appraises estates and collections. REVIEW: This book
focuses on the "big ten" companies, metal lures,
handmade lures, and the seldom seen experimental lures,
and emphasizes antique lures made before 1940. Each
section begins with a short introduction about the
company, followed by vivid, representative color
photographs that the company made. Each photo lists the
name of the lure, number, date manufactured, length,
collector value, and any important notes or details
about the lure. |
