I remember Bud Boda and Johnny Thorpe were teamed up at that Convention, and I believe they shared a booth selling their Lures and other Trapping gadgets and Gizmos and Boda's Book "The Fox Trapper's Shop Manuel".
I bought some Blue,and Red, and Green fox lure at That convention from Boda.
I did much better with S.Stanley Hawbaker's Lures that fall as I remember, than I did with Boda's "Snake Oil" LOL

Missed those years of NYSTA, that particular year I was trapping rabbits and hedgehogs in West Germany!! My first trapper gathering memories are with my dad at Piseco Lake.
