Patent Celluloid Fly-Book. 



(A. B. Shipley & Son.) 



have metal clips at each end for attaching the fly-hook, with 

 two rows of spring clasps between for securing the snell, 

 keeping it straight without regard to its length. These 

 clips and clasps do not increase the bulk of the book nor 

 add much to its weight, Avhile the flies are placed in position 

 and removed very readily. 



Mr. Thos. H. Chubb has patented and manufactures two 

 styles of fly-book, both of which subserve the same pur- 

 poses, though in a somewhat diff"erent manner. One has 

 scalloped nickel frames at the two ends of the fly-leaf for 

 affixing the flies, and two nickel bars at equal distances be- 

 tween, on which are placed short spiral springs for securing 

 the snells, irrespective of their length. The other has cor- 

 rugated nickel frames at the ends for the adjustment of the 

 flies, Avith two nickel bars betAveen, which have, instead 

 of spiral springs, flat spring clasps for securing snells
