Another stroll down Memories Lane here folks....The top three rods are all Wonderods of course and my favorites because of durability , and child hood memories..... Bottom one is a little ultra light I couldn't resist yesterday. 5' long and has some back bone for a little rod, it's a no name but nicely built.......
THE TOP one is a SPB 140 5'6" ULTRA LIGHT
THE MIDDLE ONE IS A "BACK COUNTRY SPECIAL" 5'10" , REAL HARD TO FIND

THE BOTTOM ONE IS A "COHO SPECIAL" 8' LONG AND REALLY NICE

I guess the real value of this old stuff is it takes me back to an earlier day .When I was a kid I"d stop almost every Sat. after my paper route at the local Ace Hardware store in La Salle Illinois. For a kid who liked to fish it was an amazing place with rack after rack of Wonderods, Garcia rods, and of course Heddon rods . In the show case were HUNDREDS of lures of all descriptions from Creek Chub, Heddon, Arbogast, Red Eye, Lazy Ike, and of course my favorites L & S lures.
Oh boy does it bring back memories of times gone by ........
