Title: (Angling in Wales) A Collection of Ephemeral Fishing Items, 190-?
Seller: Alcuin Books, ABAA-ILAB (United States)
Description: This collection dates from the first decade of the 20th century and includes (1) Autographed 1 page letter (April 26, 1909), on the letterhead of the Shute Letterhead from the agent (undecipherable) to: C.H. Cumberland regarding fishing tickets. (2) Letterhead of The Dovey Club, Dolguog, Machyalleth, March 1908, which references (3) Fishing License on letterhead of the Dovey, Mawddach & Glaslyn Fishing District, April 16, 1908 [2 pages]; (4) an undated Durham Ranger fly which dominated Victorian Times with illustration and details of construction, they were very expensive to make and since they involved using the feathers of endangered species were no longer allowed; (5) an undated Jock Scott with extensive details with detailed illustration and names of flowers and bird feathers to be used; and (6) an unnamed variety with 12 specific parts (including king fisher feathers) and the most detailed of the three examples. Fishing in Wales especially for salmon and trout. The protagonist of The Edwardians in Vita Sackville-West is described as follows at the coronation of George V: "He was disgusted, he wished that he might be casting a Jock Scott into the Tay." The numerous bird feathers (Peacock wing, Blue Swan, Pheasant Tail fathers, and others show why this also became a forbidden fly. The struggle for serious anglers was the encroachment of industry which already was seen in diseased trout and depletion of healthy salmon. In Wales, angling was the rival of Rugby by gentlemen and the various agencies began in the 1970's to expand "catch and release" at "at risk" rivers such as the Mawddach. While these items are unique, books on these rivers are scarce with the most important book being The River Dovey (ca. 193-?) OCLC shows only one recorded copy (Princeton).
