Vintage Fishing Tackle Reference Book Stuns Market

Legendary angling collector publishes book on rare Hardy fishing Reels including the first study of Hardy Lures with 2004 Price Guides.

(PRWEB) March 9, 2004 --
Jess Miller's reference work features:
The Dunkeld Collection of 172 rare Hardy Reels
The first ever study of 74 Hardy Lures
2004 Price Guides to more than 240 Reels and Lures

Jess Millers original full colour large format Hardy Reel Catalogue of the Dunkeld Collection brought valuable knowledge of rare Hardy reels to collectors worldwide back in 1987.

Now fully revised and edited with knowledge gained in the intervening sixteen year period Jess has republished his work in book format.
Each section gives information on a particular reel model with colour photographs and more detailed information of individual reels explaining rarity, production dates and size ranges coupled with photographs of reels displaying their Check mechanisms to assist recognition and dating.

This new book on the Dunkeld Collection also contains the first ever study of 74 Hardy Lures with colour photographs and information as to their rarity, sales/production dates, sizes and colour ranges.
Most important are the 2004 Price Guides that give more than 240 bracketed guide prices to every item in the book collated from auction and tackle fair sales.

These carefully constructed Price Guides will prove a boon to Hardy tackle owners, collectors or valuers around the world.

Jess says,'Hardy lures remain greatly undervalued, and yet many are as rare as the rarest of Hardy reels. My intention is to provide collectors with the necessary identification knowledge and pricing information needed for collecting Hardy lures with confidence'.

Jess Miller presents an affordable, quality, factual reference work crammed with invaluable information and recording in full colour some of the rarest Hardy Reels and Lures ever seen.
