    Default One of my Grandfathers reels (Circa 1920)

    "FORTESCUE"
    Free Spool
    German Silver
    Ocean City MFG. Co.







    My grandfather gave this to me a few years before he died of colon cancer.
    It didn't mean much to me then, as I wasn't in to fishing.

    It sure means alot to me now though.

    That's pretty cool, and has some meaningful sentimental value.
