MITCHELL Half Bail Vintage Fishing Reel in Box, Booklet Closing : Nov-08-08 14:30:00 PST Click HERE for details!

Mitchell Half bail
Sold in it's box with a booklet and spare spool.

A truly gorgeous reel dating from 1949/50, the serial number A24893
is stamped on the foot.

The box is strong and without splits on the edges but it has some stains and other marks as you can see.
It is also rubbed around the edges and the usual crease in the top where the handle
has come through at some time. The insert also has some stains.

The reel itself is stunning, it has been on a rod at some time indicated by small marks on the foot,

these have not gone down to the metal just enough to reveal the red oxide primer.

Mechanically, perfect.
