South Bend Reels

Question
I have several South Bend  closed face under the rod reels, models Spin 11 & Spin 22.  They look like Shakespeare models 1730, 1732, & 1735.  Can you tell me anything about them?  Were they Made by Shakespeare?

         Thanks  -  Bill Braun

  P.S.  I was referred to you by Marc Wisniewski

Answer
Hi Bill,

Sorry, but my knowledge of vintage reels is very limited.  I am not familiar with these and I do not have any reference material on either type.

You might do some searching for online discussion forums specializing in reels.

Thanks,  Joe
