The 1962 Lazy Ike fishing lure catalog provides collectors with a detailed look at the lures and fishing tackle offered by the Lazy Ike Corporation.  This is the very first catalog offered the Lazy Ike Corporation after they bought the business from Kautzky Sporting Goods.  They didn't waste any time and put out a catalog right away in 1962.  Packed full of the classics with some new additions.

Lures they made are popular with fishermen and collectors yet today.  Vintage fishing lure catalogs like this are important reference materials for identifying lure models, studying finishes and packaging, and researching the history of classic fishing tackle.

This catalog is part of the My Bait Shop Master Catalog Archive Project (MCAP), a growing digital archive of vintage fishing tackle catalogs and historical reference materials for collectors and researchers.

Trades sometimes can work out where money cannot.  This comes in handy when both people have tough to find items the other really wants.  Keep that in mind when dealing with other collectors.

Historical Notes from the 1962 Lazy Ike Catalog

This is a big one as it is the very first non-Kautzky Lazy Ike catalog.  Most people don't realize there were two 1962 catalogs put out.  New items launched include the Lucky Ike Spoon, Lazy Ike Stinger, Rig-A-Jig, Blood Bait for catfish, and new Gift Pack and Spin Pack Assortments.

These are all now plastic Ikes and you see the transition of packaging although you certainly have run out of materials in both instances for some time.

 

Below is the complete scanned 1962 Lazy Ike Corporation fishing lure catalog. Each page is shown in order so collectors and researchers can study the lure models, finishes, and tackle descriptions used by the Lazy Ike Corporation during this period.
