request for info from Shakespeare catalog

Post by Bill Sonnett »

Does anyone have access to, or a copy of the 1957 and 1958 Shakespeare catalogs? I just need a couple of questions answered. Thank You in advance
I love to get old reels, work on them until they run as smooth as silk and the take them fishing using pre-1960 plugs, mostly surface fishing for Largemouths after dark.

Bill, if you're referring to the lure listings, none were available in Shakespeare's 1957 catalog. I know of no one who has seen a 1958 edition, but I assume lures were not listed there, either. 1956 was likely the last year for Shakespeare lures.
