Beschreibung
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Stackpole Books. 1970. Octavo (8 x 6). 362 pp. including index. Limited Edition. Book number 76 of 600 copies published. Signed by the author on the limitation page. With a tipped-in colored frontispiece by Milton Weiler titled "Salmon Fishing on the Metapedia." Illustrated by Milton C. Weiler. Color fly plates. Black and white photos. Text illustrations. One of the best books by the Colonel because he delves extensively into the history of the sport - the fly dressers, the fly patterns (British and American), the rivers, fishing methods, and the lore of salmon fishing. The book is bound in gray and blue cloth with gilt titles and decorations on the spine and with "Joseph Bates Jr." in gilt on the front cover. Gray laid paper end sheets. Silk ribbon marker. Top edge gilt. Blue cloth slip case with a colored fly plate affixed to the side panel. A beautiful book. Fine in a fine slip case. Included with this book is an extraordinary large 10/0 Feather Wing Silver Doctor Atlantic Salmon Fly, dating from 1940, and originating from the Joseph D Bates Jr. collection, sold through Oliver's Auction in 1990. The fly is still sealed in cellophane and retains Bates's auction label. In excellent condition, accompanied by its original Hardy Bros. (Alnwick) LTD. envelope with The "Quill" Minnow advertising. Hardy flies of this size are a true rarity, and coming from the Bates collection is an important plus. In fine condition. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 010324

Orders usually ship within 2 business days. Shipping costs are based on books weighing 2.2 LB, or 1 KG. If your book order is heavy or oversized, we may contact you to let you know extra shipping is required. My chosen shipping option is the U. S. Postal Service. USPS is the best in terms of service and cost efficiency ¿ even though recent overseas rates, effective January 2013, have skyrocketed. USPS requires mails sent overseas and Canada can ONLY be sent by AIRMAIL. Charged at actual cost. Other overseas shipping options are available, such as UPS, FedEx, DHL, etc.; however, they are frightfully expensive.
