Seeking More Gibbs Reel Info

Post by Paul M »

Ken Kerr is working on an article for CAFTA about Gibbs (Gibbs-Delta) and is looking for info on their reels. I saw a few mentions in past Reel Talk posts but I think there is more to know. I sent him pics of 2 that I have, a Jubilee and a Rainbow. I think they also sold a Malloch style. Does anyone know what others they made or would you happen to have a catalog with pages of Gibbs reels? I have seen pics from the Granville Museum. Please contact me or Ken.

This is the front and back of a Gibbs 3 3/4" Rainbow reel
