Help with Reel/Cradle ID

Post by Don Rapose »





Hi all. I added this unusual reel to my collection. Been searching books and online and cannot find any information. I was hoping someone here could ID. Very ornate cradle. All aluminum - black inserts may be Bakelite, end caps have ball bearings, reel is free spool - turning handle counter clockwise disengages spool. THANKS for any info!!!
