Antique Lures

 

 

MISCELLANEOUS COMPANY LURES WANTED LIST

with approximate prices and photo examples

The definition of "miscellaneous" refers to the smaller companies other than Heddon, Shakespeare, South Bend, Pflueger, and Creek Chub. I collect these miscellaneous companies, but they are a bit difficult to identify as they usually didn't have the props or bodies marked very well.   I've included photos of the " types " of lures I seek.   These lures are hard to identify sometimes if they are not in the box, but I collect early lures which resemble the examples shown.  Please call or e-mail with descriptions of what you have.

This is a partial list of types of companies or lure I want to buy.  They are listed with the page number in Carl Luckey's book version 4 and Karl White's most recent book with approximate prices (price will vary with condition and boxes and usually much more than White's):

  • Abbey & Imbrie
  • Flood Minnow
  • Charmer Minnow Co
