Question Regarding Shakespeare Reel

Post by bassman77 »

I have a Shakespeare Reel 1905 UR Deuce in the Box. I am not familiar with the
Under Rod designation. Could someone help me with this issue. Are the UR versions
less common than the regular Deuce models?

Thanks for your time and help.

I have now read about this reel. I never knew that such a reel existed. Now I know that this is a reel that I was lucky to find.

I want to sincerely thank you for your assistance. Maybe someone has information on what the approximate price the reel purchased in 2014.
