Unknown black reel

Post by OCauto »

The black reel in the link below has a small target on it. Can anyone tell me who made this reel? I have one and have never been able to identify it. The one in the picture is the only other one I have seen. It is probably nothing special but it will put the question to rest.

Al,
It's a Horrocks-Ibbotson No.1805 "Black Jack". I currently have one for sale on eBay in the original box.

I know this is an old post, but I'm hoping you have a picture of the original box you could share.
