Description: How to Take Trout, On Wet Flies Nymphs text & illustrations by Ray Ovington You are buying How to Take Trout, On Wet Flies Nymphs text & illustrations by Ray Ovington. I believe this is the author’s wife Helen’s copy (more below). Little Brown and Company, Boston published the book, copyright 1952. This is a first edition. The interior is in very good condition. The interior is tight. There is browning on both the font and back end papers. There are no marks or tears. In the middle of the front right end paper is written “Helen’s Copy”. The cover is in good condition. There is fading of the spine. The dust jacket is fair condition. It shows considerable wear. The book is 5 3/4” x 8 1/2” tall and 231 pages. There are 16 b & w photographs and numerous b & w illustrations. Ephemera I found in the book a letter to the author from a UK fishing book author responding to copyright questions. The letter writer has a neat but small script that makes it hard to read. Sorry, but my old eyes make it impossible to read the name at the end of the letter. The presence of the letter tucked in the book, is why I believe this is Ovington’s wife’s book. It also could be, if he had a lover or secretary named Helen book. ***Always communicate through the eBay message system.*** Please if you need any additional information and photos, eBay message me immediately.
