2 comments about Old Fishing Lures and Tackle: An Identification and Value Guide (Old Fishing Lures & Tackle).

1. I've learned a lot about old fishing lures by browsing through this book. It is well worth it. I rated it four stars because some of the black and white pictures are not clear, and descriptions were a little too brief, although this could be because that's all the author had available to him. If you're new to collecting this is a great starter book.



2. I think that this book is great for someone just beginning lure collecting. It is very easy to use and understand.

1. Wealth of information if you are a 9C1 fan...Too bad there are so few colored pics...Any fan would have been ready to pay twice as much and get a full color book !! Also, some pictures bear false information legends...most common mistake, the model year..Disappointing for a book which IS the "ouvrage de reference" in Chevy Cop cars...

1. This book is not for preschoolers, but for experienced model builders. The author, an artist, drew accurate illustrations of classic sports cars, like the Triumph TR4 and MGB, among others, in two-dimensional form with the intention of people carefully cutting out the drawings and assembling detailed models of the cars. Steering wheels, seats, and so on are represented in the convertibles. Very detailed and authentic, and only for the careful.

1. BOOK WAS JUST AS DESCRIBED! WOULD BUY FROM AGAIN! VERY FAST SHIPPING ALSO!



2. This book does have some very nice photographs of Beetles in their original form; however, it contains no written information and the photos are not even marked. The only way to tell what you are looking at is to check with a legend at the back of the book.
   I'm sure that any true vintage nut would not have to check with this legend to confirm the model they are looking at and I thought the way this book was designed was very poor.
   Nice pics with not much else. Average book in my opinion.

   There are certainly other VW books out there that are much better than this one!




3. This is an outstanding book if you are looking for pictures of vintage volkswagens but don't look for much more than that. Although the pictures are great there is no indication of what you are looking at unless you jump back and forth from the "Description" section in the rear of the book. Lastly you will not get every year of the vintage volkswagens so don't look for anything beyond 1961, and some of the years prior to '61 are missing as well. If you are just looking for some great pictures prior to '61 this book is for you. If you are looking for something more substantial such as changes from model year to model year, and a larger range of years, then keep looking.



4. The book has a very nice collection of VW pictures. Photos whith good quality of very good cars. If you like Beetles you will appreciate this book. I think the format of the book is to small so then many pictures are little or printed using two pages (considering the price is still a good book).



5. To be honest, I don't even own this book, but my friend does, and we've looked at it many times together. It has plenty of information about Volkswagens, while displaying really fabulous photos of great volkswagen models! If you like Volkswagens, you'll love this book!!

1. I expected a superior book because the Knous's background is so impressive on the subject of railroadiana. But I was surprised to find that it was not only a superior book but also a beautiful book as well. The pictures make identification of valuable objects much easier than with just text alone. And they make the book such a pleasure to browse through. Definitely destined to become the definitive book on the subject. I recommend it highly.

1 comments about Standard Catalog of Chevelle 1964-1987.

1. I knew I was in trouble with this book when the first image I saw was a 1965 Chevelle convertible and the caption read "...the 1964 convertible looks great from any angle...." and was found in the 1964 model section.

   The book has a decent array of basic model and production data but it is data that is also available from many other sources, there is nothing particularly new or unique about the data presented. It's nice to have the data all in one place but I'm skeptical that the data is correct since they could not even identify the correct model year in their picture captions. I also saw many cars featured in the photos that were not exactly the best representations of the various models. Many cars presented had obvious restoration errors and/or aftermarket equipment.

   I found that the book may be a good general reference tool for someone who already knows a good deal about Chevelles, so you can be aware when the book is correct and not correct, but would be an inadequate tool for someone hoping to learn about Chevelles in the first place.

   I'm glad I got the book at a steep discount, otherwise I would have had to return it.
