I collected Strikers for over 30 years. I had all sizes and all colors except for one. I missed the Musky size in Silver Flash.Missed the one in the early days because $1500 wasn,t enough for the seller at a National meet. Anyway, watching for catalogs over the years I only found them in 2 Chicago company catalogs. Marshall Field and company was one. Sold them. Still have Von Lengerke and Antoine catalogs. Strikers were patented in 1935. In 1936 only the Musky size was listed in V L & A. 1937 has the Musky, medium and small sizes. 1938 has only the small and the 1 time Juniors. 1939- all gone. 1930 and 1931-$50 each mailed. 1936,37, and 38 with Strikers at $60 each mailed. Thanks again Joe, neat site.
