  • A great tool for collectors and pickers
No book can keep up with fluctuating prices and values in this economy but it is a valuable guide for identification and "relative value" of the vast number of reels out there!

  • Antique rod and reel book.
I started collecting old rods and reels about years ago and was trying to identify my stuff, it's age and worth. To me thee book was worthless as it did not show anything I own and had no estimates of value. I wasted my time and money.
