Grizzly Fenwick Rods: Value & Collectibility (1955-1962)

Question
Ive never seen one of these before and I have three of these telescoping rods but one one of them is marked as above. they look oldish with a leather carrying case. how would I find out any value or their collectability?  LE

Answer
Hi Larry,

These sound like very early Fenwick rods made by Grizzly...probably 1955-1962 time frame...and I don't have anything that describes them or lists them as to value.

They should be highly collectible.

You might look for a copy of Vic Johnson's Fiberglass Fly Rods book(s) and see if they provide additional data.

You can also try the "fiberglassflyrodders" web site...post a message and see what the folks there have to say about the rods.

Thanks,  Joe
