Notes: Hardy's Anglers' Guides were the most comprehensive fishing tackle catalogues of their day. They portrayed all of the most up-to-date tackle in great detail, as well as many unusual items. They are indispensible aids for present-day collectors of fishing tackle. This edition has short articles by John James Hardy, Laurie R. Hardy, Kenneth Dawson, Alexander Wanless, and one on fishing in Iceland by Albert Erlingsson.
