Bamboo collectors would pay you a nice price for your Winston rod. I would advise you to take some good quality pictures of it, then Email Clark and ask him to appraise it for you, then send him the pictures. Most folks get a little upset with someone just sending pictures to them and filling their e-mail without asking permission to do so first. Clark is a good an honest man, and will properly assess your rod. Sante Guiliani (and I certainly do hope I spelled his name correctly) is another expert in bamboo whose opinion I value very highly. He goes by Fishnbanjo and has a very nice homepage devoted to his love of the Lovely Reed.

Hands on evluation is probably the best for getting to the heart of the value of your rod. Depending on where you are, there are probably some experts close by that would be thrilled to help you with determining it's value.
