Man, you can find anything on the internet! I remember seeing these ads in comic books as a boy in the 60’s. 
 

411 pieces for $12.95! No low-profile baitcasters, finesse rigs, Senkos or jerkbaits in that grab bag! 
 

I actually remembered the “star drag found only on best reels” comment. Can’t remember where I left my keys some days but I remembered that!

Where do you think I got my first rod/reel, tackle-box and lures?

Me and dad, circa 1967.

Your dad had nice wheels! 

 

I had had a rod and reel like that, too. If I recall, I think the rod was steel.

Ya - 1967 Plymouth Barracuda Fastback. My younger sister named it 'Barry'.

225 Slant-6 - family put almost 200k on it before replacing it.

Fast forward to today and imagine Shimano and lucky craft throwing together a 411 piece offer for only $12,995 ?

Can I still do C.O.D.?
