What a great story behind this reel! J.A. Coxe. Bronson Michigan Reel Company.
I cannot figure out the model. It is similar to the model 25-2 and 25-3 ... and model 60, but the handle spindles are (or appear to be) wooden. They are black and not concave or convex ... just a straight taper. Perhaps an earlier model or prototype. I cannot find any model info on the reel itself.
Really nice jumping fish engraving on the handle side plate I think it could use some grease on the gears. They turn easy but are "noisy".
Case is in very good condition. Priced to help it find a new home!!
