When did Alcock Laight & Westwood retail move from King Street East to 230 Bay Street (both in Toronto)?
Thanks

Don"t have that answer but have a bait pail marked Leaside. Is there some info out there on their history as I"ve also found a couple of their older metal rods with no indication of where they were made. Thanks

Hi Ron! Can't help you on the date although i've tried researching, but i do know that the parent company was US based(creek chub) therefore not considered Canadian by true collectors. :type: Canadian

I have or should have the information, but will not be home till Christmas to be able to assist. (work in BC...home is in Ont.). If you have early Rod and Gun in Canada mags. you should be able to figure this out.
