E Veniard price list from 1989

[comanche 3,071]

Been having a clear out and came across this .Thought it might be of interest. I was busy trying to make my fortune from squirrel tails at the time. Look at the price paid for mole skins. Four pence ! On a similar note. I'm sure someone was asking for a Cymag label a few weeks ago.I hav'nt got one but I do have the little three fold instruction flyer that came with it from the late 's.

Nice! does anyone still want wings, tails, skins etc? i could maybe make a few bob on the side.

Veniards are still in business, Trappa. Or were last year. Google them. They're hidden away inside some 'country businesses' type of site somewhere.

 

Trouble is, they don't answer their e mail and I wasn't about to phone them, from here.

all these companies are the same ditchy, they pay the trappers a pittance and they want the huge profits, cut them out and advertise them yourself.

Got to agree with snareman. Advertise them yourself on a 'as available' basis.

 

Get a price book or find a site selling the stuff and compare, sell yours pence cheaper and still make a tidy profit.

I use all mine myself, squirrel tails, jay wings et al.

 

I give a few away to fellow fisherman cos I'm not a tight b*****d...well not much.

Yeppers; Turns out le Ding is another heavy shedder! At least I've no neighbours to notice when I comb him out. And the nest building birds are having a bonanza.
