Art

Answer
Hello Art - What you have is a produciton rod made by a company called Horrocks-Ibbotson.  It dates to the 1940's and at the time was one of their high end rods and would have cost around $35 or $40.  Yours appears to be in good shape and is all there.  I'd say it is worth in the $150 to $250 range. I hope that helps.
