8', 2/2 Model 8013. There were 121 of the 8013 model rods built and 32 known to exist today. The rod weighs 4.5 oz. Line weight 5. Cigar cork grip with down-locking hardware and walnut insert. Brown silk thread wraps tipped in black. Blued nickel silver ferrules. Includes original cloth bag and dented brass capped aluminum tube. The condition is fair; the cane is sound. This rod is fishable as is but would greatly benefit from a Steve Blake $500 restoration. One tip is 1/4 inch short. A letter of provenance from the original owner's beneficiary will be provided to the purchaser. Similar rods in better condition usually sell for thousands of dollars more. Price Reduced SOLD
