Hope this post is considered appropriate. A new friend has all his father's 1950 and 60 lures and equipment. Does anyone know of a site he might list these items? Thanking all in advance.

There was once an antique tackle association but I can't recall the name. You would want to first ascertain if there is any valuable tackle in that collection before pricing and putting it up for sale.

Someone here may know the name of that association. National Fishing Lure Collector's club is one I remember. They might be of some help.

Jeffery,
While certainly not an expert on the subject, if they are used they probably are not monetarily worth much; if new in the original box, possibly. Consider fishing them to experience a piece of tackle history; who knows, they might just outperform the modern, fancy-fandangled offerings!

FISHING IS NOT AN ESCAPE FROM LIFE BUT RATHER A DEEPER IMMERSION INTO IT!!! BUILDING YOUR OWN SIMPLY ENHANCES THE EXPERIENCE.

I am in he process of restoring some old bass lures I have had for 30+ years. I might be interested in some of them if the price is right.

Good Morning,
I may be interested if there were Musky/Pike Lures in the Collection. What equipment is in the collection? I have a new found interest in Fly Fishing.
