Markings: Heddon #10 - 6' - 00 - F - HEH or F

Remarks: I show this Featherweight version of The #10 to show the lack of a swell on these 6' rods. The 1940 catalog appears to be the first year that this New Screw-Locking Reel-seat of Plastic Material was used on the #10. It also mentions Maroon and Black Jasper wraps and an agatine first guide and Sturdy Water Proof Fiber Case. By 1941 the catalog only mentions Chrome Metal first guide.
