Wood records one example of a Ristigouche Salmon Club book from the late 1920s, then nothing further until 1950s; OCLC records just six examples, 1890s to 1950s, each in a single location.
This edition is richly illustrated with photographs, and includes lists of members since the club’s founding, with dates of membership. Bibliotheca Salmo salar 136 (note)
