About this Item
Two streamer flies, the Yellow Hand and the Al's Delaware Tiger, both elegantly dressed on size 2 long-shank hooks, arranged with double mats, and with Mike Martinek's signature below each fly. The flies are mounted underneath a colorful print by Winslow Homer, titled "Quananiche Fishing - Quebec - 1896." The frame is walnut and glass and was completed by Mr. Martinek in February, 2000. It measures 22 1/2 x 18 1/4 inches. On the back-side of the frame is a lengthy personal inscription signed with a drawing by Mike Martinak to his friend and expert fly dresser, Bob Mead. Mr. Martinek's flies are acknowledged as some of the best within the streamer family and have been featured in books and periodicals. Bob Mead's realistic flies have been published in Judith Dunham's book, The Art of the Trout Fly, and also highlighted in many issues of Fly Tyer Magazine. Included is Mike Martinek's book, Streamer Fly Patterns for Trolling and Casting, 1993, 40 pp., and it's also inscribed and signed to Bob Mead. Color plates showing several streamer flies together with dressing materials for the patterns. The book is bound in yellow wrappers with black titles. The mounted flies and book in fine condition.

Orders usually ship within 2 business days. Shipping costs are based on books weighing 2.2 LB, or 1 KG. If your book order is heavy or oversized, we may contact you to let you know extra shipping is required. My chosen shipping option is the U. S. Postal Service. USPS is the best in terms of service and cost efficiency ¿ even though recent overseas rates, effective January 2013, have skyrocketed. USPS requires mails sent overseas and Canada can ONLY be sent by AIRMAIL. Charged at actual cost. Other overseas shipping options are available, such as UPS, FedEx, DHL, etc.; however, they are frightfully expensive.
