Mouches de vallorbe were always sold in dozens |
"Mouches de Vallorbe" - sold 1925-1990‘Mouches de Vallorbe’, the flies from the fly-tying workshop of Charles Bickel in Vallorbe, were always sold in dozens on specially designed paper rounds. The distributor was Glardon S.A., also in Vallorbe. This method of sale makes sense – this way, the fly fisherman always had enough of his favourite flies with him. Only a few of the complete fly-tying rounds have been preserved. They are popular with collectors and look very nice in the fly-tying room, for example in a frame under glass.
