Is this what your looking for? 1970 edition. Notice its the enlarged version. PM me with you email and I'd be happy to scan and send it to you.

I remember I was twelve in the early seventies. Our family was camped out in our Open Road trailer at Yellowstone National Park. My dad had only one ticket to see Kurt Gowdy lecture on fly-fishing. He felt bad that I couldn't go so for the first time he left me alone with his fly tying kit. He handed me Roy Patrick's book and gave me several patterns he wanted tied before he got back. I was in heaven and I only had the recipes and this page out of the book to model my flies. I was alone with my dad's kit and I was in heaven.
Oh and by the way brother sculpin, check your email.
