Classic or antique fishing reels

[chris.brock]

my uncle passed away, he was a great outdoorsman and fisherman, funny story- I knew him as a guy I'd swap fishing stories with at work, before I knew he was my uncle!

he was a collector, borderline pack rat, but didn't buy cheap stuff, I have about 30 spinning and 30 level wind reels, I'm looking for a website to research these reels

thanks

Hey Chris.

Please post some pic's as I would like to see some of that 'classic' gear.

thanks guys, I haven't devoted much time, but there is at least 2 Lawson and 2 Inglis reels in there, seems like most of the reels are from the 30's and 40's but they aren't worth as much as you would expect, I bought a book online (still waiting for it) that evaluates the classic stuff

I'm pretty lazy, but I'll try, maybe I'll see if my wife can handle it, the computer has trouble with uploading photos
