Shopping again from 1968: Hunting World

Hunting World Catalog 1968

Spanish leathe “Versatote” (on my Archival Finder list)

More English Fishing Bags (made by Brady, no doubt)

Expedition Canvas Tentage

Kalahari Hibachi and Fish Locator Glasses


A few more shopping cart items from the catalog that brought you the Springbok hassok, chromed steel “supercube” furniture and genuine zebra luggage tags. Apart from the over-use of decorative animal skins and aristocratic tsotchkes, the 1968 Hunting World catalog remains an enviable source for top quality British and Spanish game bags. One can still locate the British versions by way of Brady (whose models retain the same model names). However, I would add the Spanish made leather “versatote” to my own archival finder last. Wondering if that same small 5-man shop outside of Madrid is still open and available for collaborative projects.
