This was the first book I purchased on Fishing tackle collecting when I first started, and found the color photos and descriptions a tremendous help. The only draw-back I found was that this book only covers the "most collectible" lures. I still refer to it from time to time in identifying various lures. It goes hand-in-hand with my Antique Fishing Lures and Tackle by Carl Luckey. An excellent addition to anyone's collection.

We are generally disappointed in sequels but this 2nd edition IS AN EXCEPTION. The hobby's rarest and unusual Lures are pictured in vivid color with a short history. Set this one on your coffee table and your guests are instantly "hooked". If you are a collector or simply enjoy angling history, this one is definitly a "MUST HAVE"...

UNTIL I BOUGHT THIS BOOK SOME FAMILY AND FRIENDS DIDN'T REALLY UNDERSTAND MY INTREST IN COLLECTING LURES, NOW I HAVE THIS BOOK ON MY COFFEE TABLE AND WHEN THEY PICK IT UP AND START LOOKING AT ALL THE INTERESTING OLD LURES THEY CAN'T PUT IT DOWN AND START ASKING ALL KINDS OF QUESTIONS AND GO AWAY WITH A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THIS FASCINATING HOBBY.

This book is not the most detailed on the subject of antique lure collecting. What it is, is a great collection of color images with information on the lures and companies.The pictures are better than any other publication that I am aware of.

This book is a great addition to any collection. It has great pictures, all in glossy print and good descriptions. It is very informative and should be on your list of books to have if you are a collector, enthusiast, or just like good pictures.

Well done! I use this book constantly. Well illustrated and good discriptions.

I am very happy with this book. It tells me about all the fishing lures made back when adam was a boy....

If your a lure maker and or carver of lures or just collecting. This book is full ideas and prices colors and what the old timers did in the day to catch fish very grand book for any view you want to use from.

We have bought a few of the Fishing Lure Collectibles hardback books. They are fantastic! Especially for amateur lure collectors like we are. They have great pictures and descriptions. They are indexed great so it's easy to find what you are looking for. You can't go wrong purchasing one of these books!

I bought this as a gift for my brother and he raves about it. It arrived as promised in excellent condition. Wonderful!
