Purchased mine from Pter Fooks at the Lureshop Cooktown in late 80's. Always believed they were made locally, on seeing this 1991 ad, it appears from somewhere in NSW with the 02 prefix. Any clues as to where MC haled from?

John, check out the Mal Coffey section , you allready have this article , you need Darby to set up a data base for you
Seaweed, I think you might find ?? that Mal has family down south and someone is/was selling a few for him down there, Mal was from Cooktown, I started selling his lures from the shop around 85, original lures were basic but still nice, we revamped his lures using my bibs and auto colours/2 pac finish etc to make them more presentable in the shop, I was supprised to see the question you asked cause thought the above info was common knowledge after I cleared up the ML/MC confusion.
For any that are interested, Mal now lives in Dimbulah (west of Mareeba) runs around in a wheelchair or electric buggy cause he only has one leg and the other one is on its way out as well, but he is still hanging in there cause he,s a tough old bugger, sadly he no longer makes lures, they were one of the nicest little hand carved lures you could find back then, lost all the early ones I had to fish .
If anybody is out that way for any reason I am sure Mal would enjoy a chinwag .
