Hello,thankyou fishbates and bobbeegee(posting pics).I suspected extra mid doesn't belong as it's been varnished over,different color wraps etc.Is there any way to narrow down manufacture date by wrap configuration/thread color or that it has no script on rod? The reelseat would indicate an early model,but I don't know.

Sounds like a 1930-50's rod in the 50's a 206 was a 8 1/2 foot rod. Two mids is a mystery, does the bag fit all five pieces? A canoe rod weighs in a 5-5 1/4, and the tag would say it was a canoe rod. I have not seen any of these rods sell so pricing is a bit difficult but as to the 9' length and what 9' paynes in general are going if its original and not restored, i would put it at $1800. if restored $1500. In todays market a hard rod to sell.
