Lot of 3 Vintage SHAKESPEARE Wonderod Fly Rods 6' to 7' Presential ~ AS-IS LOT

This eBay listing is for a vintage lot of 3 Shakespeare fly fishing rods that comes as you see pictured in the listing and noted above.   Some of the rods I can't fully make out what they say.   Included are the following:

Shakespeare Wonderod No 1245.   The rod is marked 7' but when I measured this rod, it's 73" so it's just over 6' long. The 2 pieces don't seem to fit correctly - it's very night but does fit together and then I noticed that the upper section of the rod is smaller in the connection metal tip section so that could be why it's measuring smaller - looks like this one may have had an old repair (??).

The middle sized rod is a Shakespeare fly rod.   I can't make out the name on the rod but it's marked Shakespeare on the reel seat and the logo looks like that of a Wonderod.   The length is 79" long...BUT PLEASE NOTE....THIS ONE HAS A BROKEN TIP!!

The largest rod in the lot is marked Presidental Kwiktaper (made by Shakespeare) FYA 010, 8' 6", Recommend Line 9.   This one measures 85" or 7' 1".   No where near the 8' 6" that the rod says.

Since what the rod sizes are showing on the rods not matching up with they physical length (unless this is how they measured old fly rods back in the day when these were made) and the 1 with a broken tip - I'm selling them as a lot, as-is, parts or repair only with no returns!!

This rod, along with Lamiglas and other rods that I just picked up came from a closed tackle shop.   Based on the age of most items, I want to say that the tackle shop closed in the 1990's and the items were moved to storage until a recent estate auction.   Because of this, I'm going to call this New Old Stock.
