Rare French "La SOIE" or "The Silk" Spinning Reel NR Closing : Mar-09-08 15:17:04 PDT CLICK HERE TO BID!

very rarely use "rare" in a description, but I think this reel deserves it. Please see the small amount of info that this page has. http://pagesperso-orange.fr/pechantic/index.htm Everything is intact, functional and working smoothly. The oscillating spool wobbles weirdly(but correctly), the bail is tripped by hitting the leg when cranked forward, the half bail arm is connected to the original spring which keeps the line from slipping out from under the bail arm, and the freespool button works. There is some slight discoloration(a litle nicer than pics), but no corrosion, and several small chips on the edge of the crank knob. The spool is 2 5/8" across and the weight is only about 11 oz. Manufactured by the same company that made the more commonly seen "Croisix" spinning reel.There is NO RESERVE on this reel, so jump on this opportunity to add a very scarce reel to your collection! I'll be selling off somw of my tackle collection in the next few months, so please watch my auctions for some interesting stuff. Thanks for looking, and always feel free to ask questions.
