That is by far the best collection I have ever seen!!!!   I would drive from Southern California anytime to see that collection in person.  I love the way the boxes and reels are displayed together. A message to the owner, if you ever see this post please send me a PM.

Speechless!... Thanks for sharing this Jess.

Ok John, now I know it isn't you ;D.
Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

That is very Cool! I bet $25 was a lot of dough in 1936 for the first 115! ;)

Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

That is so awesome it is almost absurd!! I truly hope that that man has discussed what will happen with that bit of Americana with a museum. I also hope he documents the history he knows about these reels.

wow, just wow.

These reels hold a soft spot in my heart (as they do for many of you I am sure,) and this will let me sleep a little better tonight.

I had a nice conversation with the owner of the collection tonight.   Great guy and very knowledgable about reels.  What has been posted is only PART of his collection !!!
