Winchester Fishing Tackle, a collector's guide

By Phil Whitewpe13.jpg (9674 bytes).

A great many people are unaware of the eleven year effort of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company to make a major impact in the general sporting goods business in the United States. From 1920 through 1930 Winchester was one of the major manufactures and retailers of fishing tackle in this country. In this book, author Phil White covers the many aspects of Winchester’s venture into this field.

This book is 100 pages of information that will prove invaluable for the fishing tackle collector, and the Winchester collector. This book delves into the history of Winchester’s involvement in fishing tackle, as well as the many products - from rods, reels, lures, and miscellaneous tackle, to the advertising posters and catalogs, and pictures of some of the finest Winchester tackle collections in the country.wpe14.jpg (9120 bytes)
