Francis DeGere Fly Rod Value: Assessing Your Vintage Rods

Question
I have two Francis Digger DeGere fly rods. Both are two piece rods. One has two tips, one of these is broken, and the other rod has three good tips. I have looked around and been unable to find any for sale. Just would like an idea on their value.
Thanks,  Jim

Answer
Hi Jim.  I have not dealt in DeGere rods.  I do know they are highly sought after rods.  I did find a record of a 2 piece 2 tip 6' 10" 3wt DeGere rod that sold for $1,400.  Your best bet is to go to the Classic Fly Rod Forum and go to the appraisals forum and post some good quality photos and you will find out what they are worth...and probably get some offers - they are great rods and do not come up for sale very often.  I hope this helps.
