Help with Reel ID and Trademark(?) ID

Post by leland99 »

The photos of this reel was recently posted in a Facebook group for ID. Poster indicated it had been ID'd as a Sterling Trademark trolling reel c. ~ 1945. I checked with Alan Baracco who also followed up with Paul Manual, neither could tie it to their data sources for USA or Canada. Can anyone help with reel ID and if this is in fact a trademark? Thanks in advance!
