One of the most interesting ways to research fishing tackle is by going through old magazines and tackle catalogs. In this single 1958 issue of Salt Water Sportsman magazine where I found the Pt Jude Flexmaster ad there were 8 other advertisements for various tins and metal lures. I was amazed to see that Al's Goldfish Company (Indian Orchard, Mass) made a line of surf tins. There were also ad's for Pfluger Plugs, Murat's Mureel Plug (get one free with a custom rod order from Murat!), Rag Mops and Jiget Eels, Aero-Craft aluminum boats endorsed by Arnold Laine (complete with a photo of Laine with two cows). I'll try and scan/post some more images.
