Re: Hook packets
I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete.

I love that Paperweight, what a superb piece of vintage advertising for a desk or counter top.

Re: Hook packets
I got a load of old hooks in packets a few months ago as part of a job lot - even some hooks to gut. If anyone would like them I'd be happy to see them go to a good home rather than in the bin.

Re: Hook packets
In the bin?!! This is angling heritage we’re talking about here. I’m sure someone here would love them, if not I’ll take them please

Re: Hook packets
A few of my vintage hook packets below.
I may have posted these before but it is probably better to put them on this post to keep all this theme together for future access.
