Haywoods and basketball

Post by Richard Lodge »

Picked up the monster (at least by my definition, not Ed Pritchard's) James Haywood brass clamp reel, on the right, recently. End plates are about 2 3/4" in diameter, so it gives you an idea of how small that Haywood H*R multiplier on the left is. It's a neat little reel. Those guys in the background? One of my favorite recent finds at a local estate auction. The ball says 1905-06 and it's a team from Amesbury, Mass. Who said fishing reels and basketball don't go together?

Richard- great reel. Not so sure I can say the same about those haircuts, though.
