Book by Quinn, Tom
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Fishing rods and reels, floats, flies, and other tackle accessories used to be made by hand, and, consequently, these items generally exhibit qualities associated with fine craftsmanship. Quinn offers encouragement and expert advice for novice collectors searching for an area of collectibles where there is still good availability in an affordable price range. This convenient guide should entertain anyone who enjoys fishing, and it provides helpful counsel for new collectors. Descriptions of all sorts of paraphernalia are included--nets and scales, baskets, even mahogany and oak cabinets. Quinn also cites specific manufacturers in the U.S. and Britain. Black-and-white line drawings, photographs, and old advertisements are featured as reference aids. Alice Joyce
