Cool!

I see that they don't seem to be worth a ton of money because the collectors see them as "mass produced" and they were not considered high end reals...funny thing is they also say there aren't many left to be had anymore?  Maybe because they were so disposable or of a lower quality and they didn't last...I would think that would make them desirable to a collector who wants one 5hrug?  Definitely old though and a really neat part of fishing history.

For a company that was the largest fishing manufacturer at the time with over 600 employees at their peak, there is not much information about them.  Kind of a shame...I guess there aren't too many fishing historians around ;D.
