Description
This reel is rare as can be. Early Wm Talbot Co antique fishing reel marked clearly on the opposite side for “Schmelzer Arms Co. Kansas City, MO” in beautiful condition, one small area with some very light surface wear seen in the last photo. Reel winds and clicks clearly as it should.Slider (to engage the "drag" I think it's called) button engages as it should …when the button is slid toward the outer edge, the reel spins freely in both directions, when the button is slid inwards, the reels spins and clicks in one direction with definite resistance in the other direction. Excuse the reel-specific terminology, or lack thereof. If you have any specific questions, reach out to me directly. Happy to answer any the best I can.
Appears to be in perfect working order. Please ask if you need any other specific details.
Pat. date stamped on the bottom is Jan. 22, 1901
