ABOUT THE STARS |
| The Lure Market is a very volatile market with prices changing from day-to-day. Instead of assigning values to the lures on this Website, I have assigned STARS to establish rarity. The assignment of STARS will allow you to determine whether or not your lure is rare and valuable. Condition is also a determining factor for establishing value; the better the condition, the more money the lure will command. The more stars assigned to a lure, the more scarce the lure will be. The assignment of one star means the lure is very common in that color. The assignment of ten stars means the lure is extremely rare in that color. This is only a guide to assist you; use it accordingly. |

Extreme Arbogast |
| Hi. My name is Sam Van Camp and I want to welcome you to Extreme Arbogast; a site devoted entirely to lures made by the Fred Arbogast Company of Akron, Ohio. I hope you will use this site as a means of enjoying the vast array of colors used in the making of these lures, as well as the information about the company and the lures they made. Being a collector of Jitterbugs, Arbo-gasters and a former collector of Hula Poppers, I hope that I can share some of the information that I have learned about the wonderful lures made by Fred Arbogast. If you have any information that I can use or any lures that I might add to my collection, please e-mail me at pamnsam@avenuebroadband.com or give me a call at 217-662-6559. I hope you enjoy the site which is in its infancy at the present time. Thanks, Sam |
