Four years after its publication, I am pleased to offer the remaining copies of Antique Fishing Reels at a price of $95.00, available at the ORCA Store. That is almost 21% off the original price. This highly acclaimed book contains info on hundreds of early U.S. reel makers and inventors and their reels. It has over a thousand illustrations, most in color. Many advanced collectors consider it a must-have for any serious reel collector. Once these copies are gone, I have no plans for additional printings.
Here are the contents:

I sincerely hope this will not be the end of an era. This book deserves multiple printings in the future. This is a must-have book for all reel collectors both now and in the future.

Re: Sale of remaining copies of "Antique Fishing Reels"
If you don't have a copy of this book, you have a massive hole in your library that nothing comes close to filling. If you think Google will help you with most of the information contained in this book? You're sadly mistaken. Nothing out there touches the info in this 40 year research project. Do yourself a favor and get a copy before it's sold out.

Thank you, Dr. Todd. Seeing such praise for the book from an academic historian means a lot.
