GARY BOWEN of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, recently achieved one of taxidermy's highest honors; he was named the tope "best all-around" taxidermist at the IGT, recognized for his excellent work on birds, fish, mammals, and game heads. As testimony to his skill, the largemouth bass which Gary won with was the FIRST fish he'd ever entered in any competition, yet it took the highest honor of any fish in the entire competition -- the Best of Show Fish.

The research team at WASCO is still working hard to bring more innovations to the taxidermy industry. We have recently released three new Polytranspar products that you are sure to appreciate!

SHIMMERING BLUE-GREEN IRIDESCENT
This is the first new true iridescent color in over five years and it is absolutely PERFECT for striped bass, crappie, and largemouth bass. Special introductory price.

WARM GOLD PEARL ESSENCE
This is a brand new reddish-gold pearlescent color which is extremely versatile. Sprayed lightly, it has the characteristics of a fine gold shimmer color; sprayed heavily, it has the bright and clean reflecting qualities of a gold pearl. This new color will be ideal for many species. Special introductory price.

POLYTRANSPAR GLOSS FLATTENER
Sallie Dahmes says that this is the greatest paint additive she's ever seen! Simply add a pinch of this powder to your color cup and reduce the shine of any color or gloss from a subdued satin sheen all the way down to a dead flat! Stirs in easily. Works great for waterfowl, underwater scenes, etc. Works for both FP (lacquer) and WA (water) based paints.
