Superb specimens. The brown hackle looks like the fly shown in Mark’ FlymphForum art work above (upper left of the screen). Gorgeous fishing flies.

Spoken like a person who shares a passion for old hooks...
You guys should see Dana’s hook collection. I was jealous when I got a glimpse of his travel set.
