Bob-
I had a customer come in about 10 days or so ago holding a CHERRY Winona.

He looked at me, told me that his dad had given it to him. He was also told by his father that it was an old fly reel...so the customer proceaded to ask me how to use it.

I was hoping that when I told him it was designed for fishing terminal tackle he would decide he did not want it and then ask if I knew anyone who would buy it.

The first thing that went through my mind was "Hmmmmmm...I wonder how much Art would pay for this puppy?"....but alas, the customer had no interest in selling it eventhough he had no use for it.
