Another Taper - TSmithwick

This is from an Orvis 6 1/2 foot 5 weight three piece rod. It was recently
aquired by a friend.  The rod  has a very pleasant, moderate action. I don't
know the model number, but the serial number indicates it was built in 1952.
The sections are 26 1/2 inches long, so it makes a nice 3 piece pack rod.
Tolerances and general craftsmanship are very good.
