Thomas and Thomas Sans Pareil Fly Rod 7'6" 1/1 #4/5

Thomas and Thomas Sans Pareil Fly Rod 7'6" 1/1 #4/5An incredibly rare one piece Thomas and Thomas Sans Pareil, 7'6" for a 4 5 line. Serial #3329. On the faster side of medium, and I personally might like this rod with a 4. The condition is as near mint as you con get and still be near. There are a few tiny marks from the reel seat band and a just visible brassing on the inside of the guides. No hand soiling to the 5 1 2" 11 cork cigar grip. The rod is varnished with the usual impeccable T&T finish.
