Table of Contents
Publisher's Description:
Russell E. Lewis author of three volumes of Modern Fishing Lure Collectibles has produced a new title that will be a handy resource for lure lovers everywhere!
Field Guide to Fishing Lures is aimed at assisting the beginning intermediate and advanced collector and the general antique and collectible dealer in identifying both collectible older vintage lures and the more modern classic fishing lures. It includes a cross-section of both very old and more recent collectible lures and has prices of each lure shown.
With the help of this easy-to-tote guide collectors will be able to recognize all major categories of lures and the most significant companies in the industry while hunting for additions to their collections.
The book begins with the six major companies:
- Creek Chub Bait Company
- Heddon
- Paw Paw
- Pfleuger
- Shakespeare
- South Bend
Then an alphabetical listing of more than 200 companies highlights other significant manufacturers and their major contributions. The book continues the tradition of high quality detailed photographs useful in identifying small nuances important in lure collecting as well as the authors practice of providing historical data for readers.
Publisher's Review:
This general field guide to fishing lures assists the beginning and intermediate collector in identifying and appraising a wide variety of lures often encountered in the field. Collectors can use it to distinguish between a 'good buy' and a 'bad buy.' The format is simple and the book is easy to use.
