Dick and Jack
Not tackle .... though there is some .... and not that traditional I confess, but the tackle room wall had a few gaps left on it:
The box frames were cheap in my local Tesco at just £2.50 each. The glass went in the back, but I simply glued it on the front after sandpapering the sharp edges off. A vignette of the men themselves printed off, a few old floats, hooks, hook packets and shot containers, a few split shot, an old disgorger and some float caps......

Re: Dick and Jack
Great idea and the finished items are just the job for filling in odd spaces.
