For sale here is a very historically important fishing reel. One of Stanley Bogdan's early prototype salmon reels. Single action (no multiplier). Right hand retrieve. Likely made in the late 1940's or early 1950s. The reel is in excellently-preserved condition. No structural issues exist, just some slight spool rub while winding. The frame is made of aluminum and potentially includes an early attempt at anodization. The sideplates are made of ebonite (hard rubber) and are crack free. The brake shoe and handle grasp are made of micarta. 3 3/4" diameter. Weight 12 oz. The adjustable drag works as intended. 

Don't miss out on this surely unique reel from one of the most legendary reel makers in history!
