Howdy,

Would like to join in, but don't own the book. Please post a couple suggestions (w/photos if possible) and I'll get right on it.

I googled and found these handful (but decidedly better photos) of modern renditions. If no one else gets it first I will photograph my pages and post them. I am just home from purchasing a camera (nothing like a photographer without a camera !) and am charging the battery now. It is no prob to shoot these but it will be tomorrow.

This link has the plate pages excluding the spinning lures. The pages are numbered and the desc gives the name. It may be confusing at first glance 'cause I did not get them in order. I am still learning the software.
Let me know if this works for you. There are other methods but this is the easiest/fastest.
I made the images private, due to copyright. I do not want to infringe on the author, but, I felt this was like letting you borrow the book.

Aaron - Pleasure all mine. I had a reason to learn the new camera stuff.
Darp- I did not copy the pages of recipes. Too many and too close to the binding, but, it you see some you like I will forward the info. His (Bergman) recipes are very terse and sometimes suggest items now illegal or impossible to find, but, I have always found modern substitutes to be no big deal.
