Bronson Veteran 1401 Reel

Post by Joe »

I have a Bronson Veteran 1401 Reel and I saw on the Orca website that it is a very rare reel. Anyone have any idea what it would be worth. Thanks, Joe

Hi Joe,
It's a scarce reel, especially boxed, so there's really no sales history to go by to determine a price. That said, would you allow me to use the photos you posted online for ORCA's Bronson website? I'd be happy to credit your name to the site, making you eternally famous. Please let me know. It's a wonderful example of a rare Bronson narrow spool. I've sent you a PM.

I would love to have an opportunity to add that reel to my collection of narrow spool tournament casting reels, and others I am certain share similar desires. It would be tough to value due to its rarity in the box, but one way to find out is to accept some offers and see. I sent you a PM offer if that helps.

I would take offers on the reel. Especially if that helps everyone get an idea of what the reel might be worth. Not sure if I'm going to sell it or not but if the right price did come along who knows. Just like anything the right price can change minds. Thanks again everyone.

Did anyone start the bidding? or did it it sell? Daryl.
