I received this reel in a box lot. It has an usual foot that looks almost like a cross between Terry and Montague. Does anybody recognize it? Thanks!

Don,
Was there a particular time frame he used this foot and was it reserved for cheaper trade reels? Thanks.

He used it from about 1889/90 until about 1900 on some trade reels/not all, some not so cheap.

OK. This reel is listed and shown in an 1895 A&I catalog and also in a 1905 Kiffe catalog, so that makes sense. Thanks!
