Cotton Cordell rubber worms?

[bsanders]

I just found a box full, 147 packs to be exact, of Cotton Cordell rubber worms. I'm 30, and can't remember seeing these for sale. I was just wondering how old they were. They look like they could catch an Ole large lip.

And I've looked and can't find a single thing on the Web about them or when they were made..

I remember my dad having those in his tackle box when I was young.. I'm 40 now so I'd say at least 30-35 years old.

Pee Wee's used to make worms that look alot like those..I use to catch a lot of fish on red and dark purple ones...they really liked the red ones on the river.

I believe the worms on the right that are smooth are called pencil worms. They were sold in a round container like a butter tub. We used them in the 70's. Yes, I am old.

I remember buying some of the last picture back in the mid 80's from a place called ray's sport shop during my annual grandfather funded shopping spree before we took off for canada every summer. I don't remember seeing those worms for sale as the 90's rolled around.

you had a post back in April 31, 2015 about some cordell plastic worms. Just wondering if you might have any of the 8” Cotton Codell worms left. Even if you only 1 worm left, i would be interest in it.

thank you
