***SOLD***First, a "William Mills & Son - N.Y." marked Black Bass reel with a raised hard rubber face plate, solid nickel silver parts (not nickel plated), great click, fancy knurling on the handle nut and counterbalance and crack/scratch free hard rubber. 2 3/4" diameter and 1 1/2" wide spool. A very high quality reel. $210
***SOLD***Next, an unusual Meek & Sons model #25. For the Kentucky reel collectors, take a close look at the head plate - this is only the second early model like this I've seen, with a head cap having a smaller diameter than the head plate - all factory. Great shape, great click, Carter's patent July 1904 and November 1905. $210
***SOLD***Last, a neat Martin automatic with a presentation engraving to Frank Sterling for his longest Rainbow trout for 1923, given to him by the Ilion Fish & Game Club of NY. Works fine, with some old line of the spool. $110
