useful to anybody collecting old lures September 21, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am very happy with this book and another companion book by the same author. This book is a very useful reference to the range of lures manufactured through recent times. I refer to it all the time when I am buying fishing lures on ebay etc. I can't compare it to other books as these are the only lure collecting books that I own. Great photos too.
Strongly recommended to all collectors of lures, as well as general fishermen April 7, 2006
