Description :
This lot features a prime collection of mid-century angling gear, perfect for collectors of vintage tackle or those looking for reliable, classic equipment. This set includes three distinct reels and two professional-grade rod handles, representing the durable engineering of the 1940s through the 1960s. The 3 Fishing Reels: Vintage Baitcasting Reel (Silver/Metal): A classic "knuckle buster" design, reminiscent of the Shakespeare "Thrifty" or Pflueger models. These were the standard for precision bass fishing mid-century. Garcia Abu-Matic Spincast Reel (Black & Red): A highly recognizable 170 series or Shakespeare 201 style. Known for its "backlash-free" operation and ease of use. South Bend Spincast Reel (Teal/Light Blue): A standout vintage piece consistent with the South Bend Model 77 or 88. Its vibrant color makes it a great display or functional piece. The 2 Rod Butt Sections: These authentic cork grip handles feature heavy-duty metal reel seats. Includes one "pistol grip" style (ideal for baitcasting) and one straight grip, typically paired with the high-performance fiberglass blanks of that era. Whether you're restoring a vintage setup or adding to a display, these pieces offer the heavy-duty construction and retro aesthetic that modern gear can't replicate. SHIPPABLE: Yes
Please note: Shipping is charged separately from the auction. Once the auction invoice is paid, if you chose shipping, a second invoice for the exact shipping cost will be sent to the winner. Combined shipping is available for winners of multiple shippable lots.
