Tight Lines: Rods from 1968
I have been fortunate enough to find some early copies of ABU Catalogs from which I gleaned lots of information. I have selected my earliest English Tight Lines 1959 and 1962 and the earliest Napp och Nytt 1957 and 1966.

These pages may take a little while to load (100K) but are worth the wait for the detailed information on Appearance, Model, Length, Handgrip, Action, Weight and number of pieces, sometimes also along with the price sold for in Kronor this year. |

If you have any others listed below, that are unneeded or doubles in your collection and are available for a reasonable fee, I would be very pleased to hear from you. I cannot afford to collect Mint, or unused rods that command high prices at present, until my children have completed their education.
