These 1 1/2 F Heddon built deluxe grade rods are few and far between and quite desirable. This one is an awesome fishing rod in very nice condition.  I love it with a DT4 and it is a dream to cast.  The Rod is full length with all original cane and varnish. The mid male ferrule has been reset and is absent the pin, The ferrules do have a darker discoloration but I am not inclined to polish them because the ferrule fit is just fine as is. One tip shows a little fishing set as can be seen in the photo.  It comes in its original tube and has a very nice vintage replacement bag.  This rod is ready to fish as is and while casting put a sweet smile on your face.
