BEAUTIFUL Bristol Fishing Rod Steel Telescopic HARDWOOD Handle Pat'd

Really neat Telescoping Bristol Fishing rod with a beautiful hardwood, not cork, handle. The handle has a rubber stopper on it, and the reel fastener is gorgeous as well. Unfortunately if you look at the end, it appears as though it may have a missing section. Additionally, one of the sections can pull all the way out if extended enough. Sold for parts or repair, though this is great opportunity for a collectors piece. Patented in 1937!
