About me

Introduction I am a Collector of all brands of FISHING LINES on Wooden Spools that were made from the early 1800s through 1950. I collect wooden line spools with very colorful and graphic images on labels that are intact (no holes punched) or in Coils on very Graphic and colorful Cards that are clean and not torn. I am also seeking to acquire any FISHING LINE Company's Product Labels, Catalogs, Brochures, Pamphlets, Store Displays, Signs, Banners, Company Letterheads, Advertising, Salesman Samples, Factory Photos or Factory Records or Documents. I collect anything that is directly related to the HISTORY or to the PRODUCTS of American Companies that MANUFACTURED or SOLD "FISHING LINE" from the early 1800s to 1950.
