Answer
Hi Benjamin,
This is an older rod and reel and in that way can be considered vintage; but, it's not really a highly collectible set. There is a market for the "old but not antique" rods and reels and it changes constantly as items age and/or gain popularity. There are a few buyers doing this as a business, but most are individuals or collectors of specific brands.
You should research the online forums where like minded people gather to discuss the virtues and performance aspects of different types of rods and reels. There is a lot to learn and lots of individuals willing to share what they know. Do some topic searches on various types of rods and various brand names.
Assuming it is in Good-Very Good condition, I would guess the value of this setup is in the $20-$40 range depending on the interest of the buyer.
Thanks, Joe
