Heddon Spinning Reel help requested

[Gale]

I have started a collection of Heddon Spinning Reels just for fun. I've posted here before inquiring about whether or not there was a comprehensive source of information (model numbers, years made, etc.) I could consult to begin learning a little more about these reels.

If can offer me help, I'd be grateful.

Thanks in advance! You can email me at

Sincerely,

Gale Oxley

ORCA Spinning reel Guru, Ben Wright has a book available that should give you those details, along with similar information on almost all other spinning reels. I believe the information on the book is available on this site.

Gale, As Phil stated, Ben's book is a great resource for spinning reel information, and one I'd personally recommend. I've been able to date a few reels by the detailed information he's provided.
Here's the link on the ORCA site:

Good luck with your collection!
