    Default Who knows what the name of this reel is?


    John the guy I work with got this old reel at an Estate sale this weekend. The paper work in the box says it the "LL" spinning reel. Nothing found in the computer to verify what it is.
    I found in Thea.com listing a real similar but different color for sale for $92.50. It said it was a Martin ?? Anyone ever seen this and know anything about it? No name, marking or numbers on the reel. Thanks!

    Do you think that's the original color? I wonder if it had been repainted and that covered up some info .

    I'd bet it was a Mitchell, probably a repaint

    It was in original box and no it is to perfect for repaint job. There are no marking engraved or printed. I thought of Garcia at first but not sure after looking at old pictures of Mitchells and Garcia's. We going to keep looking and hope we get a name brand. John said he ought to put it Ebay and auction it off. I told him no don't. He don't know what he has! If you'll see some ting out there about it holler if you can!

    Going to be interesting to find. I have tried several image searches and find nothing to match.
