What year was his first catalog?

I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

Wasn't it the same year that him and Loyd Reineke wrote the first edition of "High Rolling Fox Trapping"....1974?

O'gorman and Reineke sold lures, supplies, etc. and had a early co-catalog I think.

I think the first one with the O'Gorman name was 1977. Its the one with the drawing of the coyote howling and it says "Time Tested". There's no date on the cover. Before that I think it was under Midwest Trap Supply or something like that.

Thanks Ross, that sounds logical to me.

I think this was the 2nd one in 1978 and one of my favorite pictures. The 79-80 catalog has the dates on the cover.

If the above is the 2nd catalog then this must be the 3rd catalog. I would think that is Dana on the cover.

I took instructions from him in 1976, he just had a price list then. That was before Dana when he lived in a trailer house in town.

I went in 82 or 83 I know It was before the Miles City get together anyhow I feel it was some of the best money I’ve ever spent taking his instructions plus his products enabled me to accomplish goals that I didn’t think I could do
