David,

There is an excellent reference: the Mitchell Collector's Reference Guide by Dennis Roberts, published in 2000. Unfortunately, it's out of print and very expensive. The last copy to sell on Ebay went for $355! broken ... eName=WDVW

A very economical alternative is to join ORCA with a $25 annual dues and purchase copies of old catalogs that are in the club library. I'm sure there were also many articles on Mitchell reels in our ORCA Reel News magazine but not sure when they were published. You can check the ORCA back issue index on the ORCA home page link above.

Hmm...now what kind of reel can I get at this year's National in Houston, TX for $355?...Hmmmm
