Does anyone have any pictures or details such as ring spacings and sizes especially the tip and butt rings for a Oliver's Kennet Perfection
There are three things that improve with age: wine, friendship and water sense, and there's no short cut.

Hi,
This might help, a few pics from an Olivers catalogue c.1960's:-
Please note that the dimensions are from the tip and denote the place to start the whipping rather than the centre of each ring.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Dok

Hi,
I've just joined because I think that catalogue could be really helpful to me identifying what I believe to be an olivers float rod. Thank you for posting!
I'm currently helping a lady identify and pass on her husbands Richard Walker mkiv and an Olivers of Knebworth 3 piece rod. Its a fascinating journey of the rods I remember my Dad using! Thanks for all the info on this and other posts.
