The Traditional Fisherman's Forum

Thanks for the 1967 picture Robbi.

When my 1955 "Hardy's Super Bottom Fishing Catalogue" arrived today, I was delighted by the added bonus of two leaflets dropping out of the back ! I hope they are of interest.

First ... A list of "A Modern Range of Fine Rods" which were to be sold under the "Mitre - Hardy" name, a collaboration which only lasted from 1961 to 1962, I believe.





Second ... The leaflet introducing the Hardy "Neocane" game range of fly and spinning rods ... which I believe were only produced between late 1962 and 1966, so this leaflet must date to 1962.

Nice bonus Mal, another part of the puzzle

Hi Mark,

Attached pics of front covers of most if not all Hardy Catalogues to help with dating.
