How to Find the Price of Antique Fishing Lures

Antique fishing lures collecting is very much like coin, card and stamp collecting; there is an entire market of individuals who specialize in buying, selling and valuation of such pieces. There are even smaller niches within it; some people collect old fishing-lures catalogs and distributors' sales materials. There are various ways to find the actual market price of antique fishing lures and these can be performed by any individual with the right understanding of the marketplace.
