My Bio

Born, raised, still living. I have collected antique fishing tackle and related items for over thirty years, have occasionally written for the NFLCC Gazette and am the former Paraphernalia Editor for the now defunct Fishing Collectibles Magazine.

My primary collecting interests are the angling art of Ralph Ludwig Boyer, early fly tying vises made of brass & steel, fishing related tobacco items, bottles, tins, gizmos, gadgets and doo-hickeys. I particularly like vest pocket collectibles ...a term I coined during my tenure at FCM. I have attended and set-up at the show affiliated with every Oliver and Lang's auction since the very first ...so, at the next one, please stop by and introduce yourself.

My Occupation

I am a partner with Design Installations of Norwalk, CT, a custom design/build firm specializing in multi-room audio systems, home theatres, lighting control, motorized shades and residential systems integration.

I have been in the industry since 1976 and consider myself an incurable audio nut! I don't own an iPod and prefer records to CDs. I am as nostalgic about audio as I am tackle.


Need audio equipment ?

I will trade brand new audio equipment for antique fishing tackle !

My Hobbies

Collecting old fishing tackle, audiophilia, wristwatches, enjoying wine and detailing my MINI Cooper.
