Allcocks 1966 Guide - 2 joint dry fly rod - Action/fast-medium dry fly - 9ft - line HDH (or in new money No.6) - red whippings - cost 138/- + 24/- P.Tax""

No mention in that years catalogue of an 8ft rod.

Thanks Olly for the response.

The rod is definitely 8ft. Do you have any other suggestions to what is may be? Therefore , it is possible that the transfer is not original, the whipping is brown\gold. The trade mark is 636741.

I do have couple of photos, however I am unsure how to attach them using this site. Here we go!
