It became the most sought after and highly anticipated evening reading for sportsmen and gentlemen the world over.
Known as the 'Angler's Guide'.
This catalogue made the Hardy Brothers the best-known fishing tackle manufacturer in the world, leading 'tens of thousands of fishermen... spending their winter evening pouring through its pages'.
Contents are broken down into the various methods of angling, and includes 'Fly Fishing', 'Spinning and Prawning', 'Dry Fly', 'Wormin' and 'Sundries' Each section also includes a helpful job instructing the reader on how to fish.
When originally delivered by mail or train or plane, it had a 'Details for Register' leaflet loosely inserted into the text, which gave the consumer an opportunity to open an account with the business, and place orders worldwide.
