this vintage winchester no. 5090 telescopic steel fishing rod is an attractive and uncommon example from winchester's early sporting tackle division, produced during the period when the company marketed a full line of premium fishing equipment alongside its firearms and ammunition. The rod measures approximately 9 feet in overall length when extended and weighs about 9 ounces assembled. Winchester steel rods from this era are appreciated for their durability, practical field use, and distinctive industrial styling that reflected the sporting trends of the early 20th century. the rod features black enameled steel construction with nickel silver snake guides, a three-ring nickel silver tip assembly, and a 5 inch ringed cork grip fitted to a telescopic alloy reel seat. The telescoping design allowed the rod to collapse into a compact form for transport while still providing the reach expected of a full-length freshwater rod. The finish shows handling and age-related wear throughout, with scattered finish loss and oxidation visible on some components consistent with age and use. Overall, this is a scarce and visually appealing winchester telescopic steel rod with strong display value for collectors of early american sporting tackle and winchester memorabilia.
