loose tips

This is the board to ask about the identity, or for an appraisal, of a rod. Please use the outline as explained on the board. If there is a makers name, list that in the subject line. Make sure you include the length, number of sections, any identifying markings and the general condition. Adding photographs is always helpful!

Can anyone help me ID these tips. I'm going to put them in the classified adds. Hope they can find a home. I believe the top two are a match. Probably Montys

Bottom one looks like it might be a South Bend, but the pin seems out of place. Maybe a UH? Mark can probably tell us. In every case, stating the diameter of the ferrule slide when you list them will help prospective buyers.

The bottom ferrule looks like it was made by Union Hardware. The next one up might be a Montague ferrule, but I can't see the incisions well enough to be sure. The top 2 I don't recognize the maker.
