Fenwick blanks

I just obtained 2 Fenwick trout sized blanks very cheap and was wondering if there was anyone who specialized in or collected them. One is an SP842 the other is FL842 both one piece and have the Fenwick stamp of logo and model #. Send me an email if interested. I'd like to see these end up in the right hands.

The 1985 Fenwick blank catalog shows the SP842F blank as being a 2 piece blank. I couldn't find a listing for the FL842.

I have an SP842F. Two piece and quite a nice blank for glass. Fenwick made some exceptionally nice glass blanks over the years.

The SP842 standard may well have been single piece. I assume it doesn't show an "F" after the model number.

After researching a little more at [fiberglassflyrodders.com] I now realize that I might have misspoken. The FL842 is actually a Grizzly-Fenwick, it's brown glass not yellow. The SP842 (without the F) is also brown.

I bought 3 blanks and the 3rd is a yellow 7 footer similar to the SP842 and only ID is 006 stamped near the butt.

I didn't buy these with any idea in mind but maybe to pass them on to someone who collects or enjoys building and using. I'd sell for what I have into them, $30 plus shipping. If there's no interest here I'll post over at fiberglassflyrodders.com for the same deal.
