Help Reel Identification please

[clacker39]

Hi
I would very much appreciate if anyone can can assist me in identifying this recently acquired reel.
As a new collector my very limited knowledge leaves me without a clue as to the manufacturer of this reel.
I can only guess that it may be an Ocean City trade reel?
Any assistance would be very much appreciated.

Bob, Looks to be a 600yd Ocean City Long Key. Not sure the grasp is correct as it looks to be a replacement type. Doug

Bob, Definitely an early (pre-badge) 600 Long Key. Got one just like it.

Info here on Orca's Ocean City Page
Shows it to be @1938 vintage since as mentioned no badge on it yet.
NICE REEL !!!!

Thanks Gents
I really appreciate that you have taken the time to assist me here.
Looking at the details referred to by Harry it certainly is a early version of the Long Key,with what appears to be a different handle,I am fortunate in that I have the other Long Key models to go with it.
Again thank you.
