it is approx 40 plus years old, they only made a few of them as best i remember the cost on them at that time was around $30 seems like to me that someone a supplier ran them on close out at i want to think it was around $12 or $15 and i ordered all they had i believe i bought 26 of them at one time because at that time i was pres of the fishing club and was always looking for stuff for our monthly meeting's but i know that i kept 10 for my self and i already had 3 or 4 i used to be a rod junkie, i would buy rods and reels just at random as well as build them for my self.
of intreast to you readers in the last 3 years i have sold over 125 rod and reel oufits just to clean out my garage i had one complete wall that was totally nuthing but rods and reels i had at one time well over 225 outfits but i gave a lot away to a young man i work with and my son and grand son i now only have approx 60 left i havent counted them so it's just a guess



yes i truly am the rod freak ,but i told my self one day i will have all the rods i want and sure enough i do, i will take a photo and show you if i can.
