How Many Known? - Champagne Velvet TOC's Bumblin' Fisherman

[MAKER'S MARK]

Years ago someone told me there were more than 15
different ones, but @ the Indy IBC show a fellow
collector said 12, anyone know for sure?

Numbers 1 thru 5 have been the toughest
to run across, in my experience.
I have 1, 2, 4, & 12. Need
the rest . . .

Below are scans of the dozen I have
been able to cull via the internet.
I am woefully sitting with just
4 of them. Am in the market
to buy, if anyone has any
in grade 7.5+ or higher
for reasonable $$$
(125-175 ish)

Cheers! - John Tucker

I like #7 with the CONE TOPS in the boat!

I have #11 but I plan on keeping it.

I have found numerous of these at antique shops however they are almost without exception priced at $250+ and often times offgrade to varying
degrees so I've never actually purchased one. I hope to find a reasonably priced example someday.

Who fishes while wearing a tie? I never have in all my years of fishing (and drinking beer, naturally).

There are so many ways to collect in this hobby. I never knew half those signs existed- good luck!
