Urban Trout Flies of the Northeast

David Wolfe, not content with the obsessive nature of hot lead
letterpress work, ties flies...both "working" and "trophy". To those
can now be added "art flies".

This work includes 16 "urban flies", tied from things like electrical
wiring staples, a zip tie, and a 22 bullet. There are also 16 letter
pressed descriptive cards (plus a title page), each of which includes
a fine water-color illustration of the given fly.

It is simply wonderful and I can not wait to show it at the SF book
fair
. Better images to follow as to allows. [Updated to add links]

As a lucky owner of said work, I can honestly say that it's one of the funniest and most delicious acquisitions I've made in the past year. Congratulations!
