Deb, if you read Vic McCristals book Great Fishing with Lures (c1970), you'll find Chapter 30 is all about Sid Boland. In it Sid is quoted as saying he's still making, in fact just finished an order for a bloke up on the Atherton Tablelands, well that blokes son now living in Brisbane kindly sent me one which never got wet.
Got to pay for my Expo table somehow, it's yours .
The others shown in LL threads aren't original Bolands, they're all copies.
Regards, Tony.

I have one, but I'm not sure if it is an original or copy. Unfortunately it is damaged.

I managed to pick up a couple this week, not the originals, but look the same as the one in the packaging from Rockhampton.
