Vol. XIV August 1937 No. 8

  

32 pages - great ads and articles! 

Full-page ads;

Humphrey Bogart for Lektrolite lighters

Barbara Stanwyck for Lucky Strike (back cover)  

 

The condition is very nice for it's age - minor wear/soiling, faint vertical crease. There's a mailing address on front.

 

The cover is designed so you can very easily cut off the type and frame the picture itself. This style layout was short-lived.

 

In "Reduced Loads" a crow banded in Kansas turns up in Alaska...

 

 

In "Atlantic Blue-Fins", Captain Bill Gray tells about the huge fish - and shows Michael Lerner and President Roosevelt going after them!

 

  

"OH, NUTS!" by Richard Hill Wilkinson - he takes his wife on a pheasant hunt...

 

 

"PRIZE SPORTING PICTURES" - this month's photo contest winners.

 

  

"Fisherman's Right" by Herbert Elisha Stover - the July story contest winner - "Every inch of me felt the shock of that strike..."

 

 "Mid-Summer Sunday" by B. F. Pearce - a perfect day at a nearby creek.

 

"Skeet" Edited by Hy Gunn (pen name from our talented editor O.H.P. Rodman?) - the Third National is coming to Detroit.

 

 

"FISH and FISHING" by Breems Forrest - "Are Muskies Over-rated?" this and that about old Esox Masquinongy, then how to use a boat net, etc...Breems always goes on for many pages, but it's such great info - never too much!

 

 

Check out the ads; South Bend Muskie-Getters, Heddon's RIVER-RUNT-SPOOK, Will-O-the-Wisp electric lighted lure...

 

Next, in the "CAMPING" department by Voyageur - a grub list, Appalachian Trail notes, moccasins w/o soles, and a few more topics.

 

"Sporting Photography" by Robert E. Coulson - "Easy Picture - Easy Price" - using box cameras, "Composition", and getting an airborne fish...

 

In "Washington Notes", the "Barkley-Vinson/Lonergan Pollution Bill", "Cummins and Copeland Firearms Bills" and "Revenue Act of 1932" are discussed.

 

 In "ARMS and AMMUNITION" there's a new (returning?) editor this month; Captain Paul Curtis.

He goes on a pilgrimage through the arms manufacturers' latest inventions - Savage 420/430 O/U, Zeiss scopes,and the Marlin O/U.

Then he puts down raised ribs, and tells a story of John Philip Sousa's Ithaca.

Lastly - a great photo of a boy with a rabbit for dinner!   

 

"Sporting Dogs" by Edward Briggs (edited by "Walker Field") - "Starting the Starter" - LOTS of super training tips! 

The first part is a fun story about a dog that needs it!

 

 

 The cover art alone is well worth the price - the stories and photos just add to the value.

Then you check out the ads for guns, fishing equipment, tobacco, etc., and you soon find yourself in "man heaven"!

(some "wimmen" like it, too)
