If anyone has any further pictures or information on dates etc relating to the Hardys Anglers Guides from the 1910's please let us know.

1906

Mark, I knew I had something on Hardys Catalogues on file.
Could I suggest that you go on to eBay Australia and do an advanced search for user Walty56
The guys name is Walter, he lives in Milano, Italy and he is a perfect gentleman and really helpful
He has a few items but the one you want is like a scroll with "Hardy Bros Fly Fishing Reels & Rods Manufacturing Dates"
The cost was about $4.99USD approx $4.89 AUD payable via PayPal
It is a PDF file and he sends it shortly after receiving your PayPal payment.
I think when I got mine it was all over red rover in 30 minutes.
He has a comprehensive colour print out of most of the catalogues. I'm not sure if you can download the photos of the catalogue covers for the different years but anything is possible.
Hope this helps, cheap for $5 bucks I reckon.
Cheers, Gordon

Mark, sorry, forgot you are probably not in Australia so just go to eBay wherever and do the advanced search. Cheers, Gordie

Thanks for that Gordon, just ordered one for that price.
