A Whatszit rod

[Colston Newton]

My cousin is selling off his bamboo collection (See Winston query below). In it is this 7 1/2' rod with two tips that he thinks is for 5 or 5 wt. (I think so, too, given its length). The only marking is "Kent" in front of the grip. Cuz thinks that's the maker's name. I think it could also be owner's name. The rod appears to have been refurbished. The reel seat seems too new for the rod. I'm posting pix. (Click on them to enlarge) Unusual canvas covered case. Any ideas what this is or value?

Kent was a maker in Virgina or Maryland if I recall wguch state properly circa 1950's and 1960's
