showing very minor soiling from very little time on the water in my opinion

Blonde cane with transparent deep caramel wraps and black tipping at the winding check

Color preserved (unusual) golden brown wraps

Up-locking nickel silver reel seat over a spanish cedar spacer

Mortised wood spacer

Dual aluminum sliding band reel seat with a cork spacer and a handsome walnut butt-cap

Winston catalog supplement from 1983

The spare spool appears to be a later-fabricated replacement and fits the reel perfectly

Give thanks to the larger line capacity

Serial number K/J which dates the rod to October 1968

This reel is priced attractively based on the spool showing some minor corrosion as well as having a slight chip in it (see last photo)
