Reel Identification

Post by clacker39 »

Hi
I trust that you are all keeping safe, well, and clear of that dreaded virus in your country.We have been lucky so far here in Aussie as the Federal Government took early evasive measures to mitigate the spread.
I would very much appreciate if members could assist in making an ID and age,on this little reel,pic's attached.
Regards

Going back through RT posts it seems this reel is mid 1920’s, at least sometime before 1930.
