Orvis


Question

Orvis Impregnated 2-Pi
I have a 2 piece Orvis Impregnated 99 split bamboo fly rod that I would like to get a value on.
Serial #:  32690
Length:  8' (each section is 4')
Weight:  4 1/4 oz.
Line Weight:  7

I would say the rod is in excellent condition, hopefully the picture shows it.  Cloth bag and aluminum case included.  I have other pictures if you need them.

Thanks in advance.

Answer
Aric,
I used  the Orvis database , Orvis Bamboo Rod Production ~ 1940 to 2008: A Collector's Reference Copyright 2003-2008 James Gregory Reynolds

I looked in the database and could not find your number.

According to Antique & Collectable Fishing Rods: Identification & Value Guide Homel, Dan. 1997 (2nd edition 2000), the 8 1/2  ft model Model "99",c.1955, (2 sections)  has an extra tip valued at  $110, 235 and $395 for poor, good, excellent condition respectively. You might search eBay for prices.


Good Luck
Mac
