Your reel looks like out of the 1950 Catalog, page 12. A Model 111 Brigantiine.

The Model 111 Brigantine went through multiple changes. The ORCA page reflects some but not all. pertaining to the question here in this thread, the reel is a post war version. Four cross bars with a free spool lever. Pre-war versions of the Brigantine had three posts with a free spool lever and four posts with the Automatic Free spool. Post war side plates were also slightly radiused on the side plates. Model 111 Brigantines stayed with its name for over 30 years, but were reconfigured multiple times.
