Do you love big bluegill?

Does anyone collect old lure catalogs? Are they worth anything? I've got several catalogs from the 1960s and 70s. If nothing else, the sure are entertaining to look at!

HEY JEFF, YUP they are worth something to someone like me!!! I've personally collected most of the full size rod catalogs from Shakespeare , in particular. They had great color pics of rods and lures and most of mine are all the 60's and a couple form the 70's . I have most of them in at least two copies, mint to near mint, and users that I use for references. Never thought of putting a pic of em on here because I've just never thought of it . You have a pic here of a Arbogast lure catalog and of course the lures from Fred were legendary bass producers , as everyone knows. CONDITION AND RARITY are the two guiding rules in catalogs. Most bring a few bucks in useable conditon, with rare catalogs from Heddon, Moonlight , and some of the other storied manufactures bringing big bucks. It is refreshing as a point of reference to see these old ones from time to time and brings back memories of our youth and what we used back then. By the way these full size catalogs are not all that common today as the small ones that came in the lure boxes are much more available. NICE ONE AND THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO POST THE PIC............
