while searching ebay for a project for Waste Not Want Not (Providence, RI), I started to notice all of my "watched" lures were all from the same company- ABU Garcia (originally A U Urfabriken, later ABU Svangsta) founded in Sweden in 1921. The company orignally made more banal objects such as watches and taximeters, but turned to fishing supplies during WWII. Either way they are really beautiful, bizarre little objects- and since this was ebay, I obviously got excited and bought a bunch.
