FISHING GIG FROG SPEAR EEL J Fordham New Haven Conn. NR Closing : May-05-08 14:50:03 PDT CLICK HERE TO BID!

THIS IS AN OLD EEL GIG THAT SLEPT IN THE SALTY DEPTHS FOR YEARS AND BROUGHT UP FOR YOUR COLLECTION. IT COULD ALSO BE CONSIDERED A FROG GIG OR SPEAR. IT WAS MANUFACTURED BY THE J.F. FORDHAM COMPANY IN NEW HAVEN CONNECTICUT. I DON'T KNOW THE HISTORY OF THIS COMPANY BUT WHAT I DO KNOW IS THAT THEY LATER LOCATED THEIR OPERATION IN SAG HARBOR, N.Y. THIS MAY BE AN INDICATION OF THE AGE OF THIS ITEM. THE CONDITION IS PITTED AND CORRODED, BUT THE TINES ARE PERFECT AND OTHER THAN SALT DAMMAGE IT'S A GREAT SHOW PIECE. IT MEASURES 15 1/4" IN LENGTH AND 7 1/8" ACROSS. YOU CAN SEE THE MAKERS STAMP "FORDHAM BR........NEW HAVEN CO....".

I PREFER PAYPAL BUT WILL ACCEPT CHECKS AND MO'S. CHECKS MUST CLEAR AND IF YOUR MO LOOKS FUNNY TO MY BANKER IT MUST CLEAR AS WELL. I EXPECT PAYMENT IN SEVEN DAYS UNLESS OTHER ARRANGEMENTS WERE MADE THROUGH ME. AFTER SEVEN DAYS I SELL TO SOMEONE ELSE. AT TEN DAYS I REPORT YOU TO EBAYS NON-PAYMENT DEPARTMENT SO I CAN GET MY LISTING FEES BACK . DO NOT BID ON THIS ITEM UNLESS YOU PLAN TO ADHERE TO THEIR RULES. GOOD LUCK AND THANKS FOR BIDDING.
