Antique Tackle Observer Website Articles

As many of you know, I own the Antique Tackle Observer website. I have in the past been asked about the more than 100 articles that were in the magazine over the years. There were a few suggestions for a hard-copy book with the best articles, an ebook etc. However, I decided to put as many articles as I could on the website. Bob Brookes sold me his complete set. I had lost a few and started on the website.
It sounded great until I started. I had to design the website, watch hours of Youtube videos and eventually had it ready. Then the problem of the articles finding all the images, but at least I had a running order now I had the complete set.
I also had to spell-check the originals and make a few adjustments.
Well, I'm glad to say there are now ten articles, all free to read, with the latest Zephyr Floats added today.
Any comments or requests are welcome.

I have just had a skim over the website, having never heard of it before . It is a very interesting place, with a nice presentation and some informative pieces on antique tackle and its history.
Many thanks for the link Stefan.

I wasn't aware of the website at all Stefan.
I can't currently access the Zephyr floats article, perhaps you are working on it?
