Old Daiwa Fixed Spool Reels (2) - phantomfisher - 01-29-2004
[
]Hi everybody, Since my last post regaring my quest for old Daiwa tackle catalogues some important information has come to light.[crazy]
I am based in the UK and apparantly when Daiwa started selling their tackle here they did so through a company called Milbro! Now I am not exactly sure when Daiwa started selling tackle in the UK but it would seem that initially it was included in Milbro's tackle catalogues. So I suppose I am now looking for Daiwa and Milbro Catalogues! At what point in time Daiwa produced their own UK tackle catalogues I do not know except that the oldest Daiwa catalogue I have is from 1982. If anybody has a UK Daiwa catalogue that is earlier than 1982 then I would like to hear from you.[
] If anybody has any old Milbro catalogues then I would also like to hear from you as well. I am also interested in pre 1985 Daiwa catalogues from the USA, Japan, Australia etc.[
] Finally I suspect that Daiwa had a similar arrangement in the USA as they had with Milbro in the UK and I would be interested to know if this was the case and who the company was.[
] Any info would be very much appreciated.
Cheers,
Phantomfisher
