or20071117a.jpg Superb 1935 HEDDON DeLuxe Fishing Tackle Catalog, **XF*

Up for auction an Extremely Choice 1935 HEDDON DELUXE FISHING TACKLE CATALOG. For whatever reason, the 1935 catalog is the toughest of the Heddon catalogs from the 1930's to find. This example is 32 pages, fully illustrated in color and is all original and complete. Covers Heddon's complete line of fishing tackle for 1935, including lures, fly rod baits, bamboo fly rods, bait & casting rods, reels, color and bait charts and much more. First year catalog for numerous Heddon lures, including the Vamp & Jointed Vamp Spook, Flaptail, Flaptail Jr., River Runt Spook, Basser Spook and many more. Catalog is in Extra Fine condition, showing only faint wear to the outside spline. Book is clean and crisp, the colors fresh and bright. About as nice a catalog from the 30's as you'll find. There is simply no better reference tool than these early Heddon catalogs. To be sold with a very modest starting bid and NO RESERVE. Buyer to pay only actual shipping of $4.60 via U.S. Priority Mail. Insurance is optional. Payment must be received within 10 days of auction closure. I accept PayPal, Money Orders and Cashier's Checks. Check out my other vintage tackle auctions and thanks for looking. (more...)
