Answer Hi Jeff,

I am not the rod collecting expert here on this site, but I can usually dig up something about some of the rods that people inquire about.  This one has me stumped completely (which make me think you may have something special!).  The guy on this site that would have your answer is Joe Douglas.  Please send this to him along with any photos you could add to help him.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Good luck,

Marc  

Answer
Hi Jeff,

I'll need to do a little digging on this one.  I believe this is a trade rod made by one of the mass production rod builders for someone else.  I can't recall the exact details.

Could you send additional photos to me at [email protected] and I'll review them.

Take shots of the decals, inscriptions, reel seat and handle.

If I am correct about the rod, the value will be in the $80-#120 range for Good-Very Good condition assuming you have the original bag and rod tube.

Thanks,  Joe
