VFT509


For sale here is an Everett Garrison Model 212 -- 8' 2/2 5-6wt bamboo rod. Serial U-8-1, made in 1951. The rod is in near mint refinished condition. All sections are full length and straight. 

Transparent honey wraps with chestnut colored wraps at the ferrules, winding check, and one tip-top. Resorcinol glue lines. The original script was unable to be preserved and therefore was replaced. The original grip, 6" in length was retained and remains in wonderful condition with only the faintest bit of ridging towards the top. The nickel silver cap and ring reel seat remain in excellent condition. The Swiss-style ferrules are size 13/64 with a nice fit. The rod weighs 4 oz. The action is a wonderful medium-fast. Original bag and tube included. 

Don't let this one get away! Garrison rods are very scarce with his lifetime production believed to be less than 700 rods and far fewer than that known to exist today.

Please note: Paypal is not accepted for international sales. Please use a credit card or choose "Direct Bank Transfer" if you purchase the rod online.
