Kilwell / ABU  Catalogs

Catalogs mentioning ABU were also produced by the Kilwell Company in New Zealand

Here we have a very early  Kilwell Catalog was produced in 1963/64 and we have the Welsh Sleuth,  Mike Elsworth to thank for sharing it here!

It has not been determined whether the wrongly label ABU lures on this page below  are actually incorrect or whether Kilwell did some deal with ABU and the other manufacturers?
