“These little membership books, which were presumably issued every year, are rare as hen’s teeth” — Charles Wood, Bibliotheca Salmo salar. Wood records one example of a Ristigouche Salmon Club book from the late 1920s, then nothing further until 1950s; OCLC records just six examples, 1890s to 1950s, each in a single location.
This is the centennial edition, abundantly illustrated with historic photographs.
