There are only 27 Bob Doerr models known to exist and I would venture to say that only perhaps a handful remain in such fine condition as this rod

This is a true western rod

The seat does show a bit of normal fishing wear on the butt cap as well as on the spacer

The original owner's name is printed on the butt along with usual rod information
