Finally got to digging thru the storage closet for tax stuff and found the rest of the prints from the Angler's Art - right where my wife said they were...sort of...:rollem:

This is the very last of them - what I have is:

The Graves Fishing Club - From 1881, probably the most historic striped bass print and still impressive when you consider the primitive tackle of the day.

- A couple in 8x10 size matted out to 11x14 in both light and dark walnut burl - Was $175, now $125

- One GPFC in 16x20 size in cherry - Was $250, now $175

- 2 Gamefish of the New England Surf in 16x20 - it was exclusive to the Angler's Art, 8 Dentons superimposed over the image of a surfcaster - Was $225, now $150

- 2 Gamefish framed out to 11x14 - Were $150, now $100

- 2 full views of the Graves Point Club, about 1890, showing both the SW and SE bass stands - companion piece to the GPFC photo, 8x10 size matted out to 11x14 and framed in dark walnut burl - Were $150, now $100

Examples below, pick up in Newport, meet within a reasonable distance or I can ship 'em to you - cash, USPS MO or partial trade for pluggage, reels, what have you -

When these are gone, that's pretty much it -

I am interested in the "Gamefish of the New England Surf" 16X20. Is it framed? What type of plugs are you intertested in? When you say partial trade, how much cash/plugs?
Thanks.

What kind of tackle are you looking to trade for? I'd really like the Graves Point club picture, let's see if we can work something out.

I have it framed and unframed - it's 11x14 matted out to 16x20 (it's a photographic print not a poster).

The frame I made for it is 1" antique gold. I can also do it matted only for $75 if you want to frame it yourself.

Also have it in a really nice gloss black 16x20 frame, mottled gray mat and black filigree insert around the image but print size is just a little smaller, 10x13 - don't have pix of that frame type, no digital camera right now - it was a one-off - real expensive and a PIA molding to cut and join. It's the same price as the gold-framed one, $150.

Looking to get maybe half or so cash, depending on the plugs. Looking for any Habs, but particularly jointed needles or 1.5's, Bernzy's or BMs -

Same as above, Matty -

Prices are picked up in Newport - I ship FedEx 3rd Day, which is the safest and the same as USPS or UPS at my rate - figure maybe $12 to $20, I can let ya know on that.

Thanks, you guys - let me know

For those that have not seen these, they are incredible. A must for the ManCave :cheers:. Chuck and the Bride have done a fantastic job with these.

Sorry. I thought the print was 16X20. The 11 X 14 size is too small for where I wanted to put it.

No problem, Charleston -

The overall size is 16x20, wanted to make it clear it's not just a framed poster
