Re Classic Tapers - Ragnarig

Dear Listers

This is not a particularly important rod in any historical/engineering sense,
but it is a fine little light trout rod of the type which many fishermen
(salmonidus indigensis) tend to like.  Including me!  So here it is.  7' 

This rod was made by Farlow's in Aberdeen (Scotland) in the 60's (guessing)
for  Norm Thompson in Seattle.  It is a nice pale gold cane with dark red
wrappings- no intermediates.  No significant set in either tip, but not much
use evident, either.  The varnish is brushed and rubbed out, so maybe about
5-6/1,000ths thick, total.

Guides are very standard stuff: from tip; 4 3/4, 12 1/4, 19 5/8, 28 7/8, 37
7/8, 49 1/2 and 62 1/2 would be the stripper.

The handle is a total 9 3/4" long with a 6 1/8" cigar cork grip.  Back next
week with a Thomas salmon rod and a Cross double-built!

Buena pesca,
Davy
