Question i have 3 older bamboo rods (1) Cant identify the maker the label appears to have been pealed off but 'union" is written on the piece near the handle -2 tips excellent condition:(2) can't identify the manufacturer but the word "Gunnison" is near the handle - very good condition;(3) South bend 8'6" near handle is #7186- 8'6" absolute mint condition. I could photo them-- I'm curious about a possible sale-- How? cosign? who is reputable-- Maybe their best value is the present use as of wall decor?
AnswerHi Craig,
Not really enough information for me to do much with these. If you can take some pictures and send them to
[email protected] I'll review them and see what I can do. Closeups of the writing, any labels, reel seat, handle, ferrules, typical wrap and a shot of the whole rod help.
The #7189 does not fit into the South Bend code structure for bamboo rods. Is it possible this one is fiberglass that has the faux bamboo finish on it? Did it come with only one tip?
Let's see if we can figure out what they are and what value they might have before trying to find the best place to sell them.
Thanks, Joe
