Identifying & Valuing Antique Fishing Reels: Speedlock & American Fork & Hoe


Question

discriptive markings
i was just wondering if you could tell me anything about this reel. on top is say   "SPEEDLOCK" PAT. No. 2102237?
curious on its possible value.
or where a good place to get the value of it

Answer
Hi Ken,

I believe the "Speedlock" refers to the rod not the reel.  This patent number is associated with American Fork & Hoe Company for their steel rod with Speedlock reel seat.

You should be able to remove the reel from the rod.  The reel looks like an older level wind reel.  There are some exceptions, but most of these old reels sell in the $5-$15 range.

Thanks,  Joe
