History of Bronson Reel Company

Post by mark bumgarner »

Last month at the NFLCC nationals in Springfield, IL, I was speaking with one of the vendors and he informed me that there was a book on the history of The Bronson Reel Company. I have had no luck searching net. Does anyone have knowledge of, or know how a person could get his hands on a copy? My focus is on the employees, designers, machinist, executives, etc. Any info appreciated.

Well now Mark that is disappointing ! I believe the vendor told me Colby had possibly written one but he has informed me this is not the case. Well maybe this is something we should consider before all the first hand sources go off and leave us.
