5.0 out of 5 stars A GREAT BOOK ABOUT OLD FISHING REELS, January 23, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Antique & Collectible Fishing Reels: Identification, Evaluation, and Maintenance (Paperback)
Without hesitation I highly recommend this book. Mr. Jellison clearly provides a general primer on reel collecting and patent history. He includes thousands of value listings and I feel that the coverage of the subject is substantial, particularly in the area of reel repairs and evaluation of reel defects. A good reference for anyone interested in fishing reels of the past!

This review is from: Antique & Collectible Fishing Reels: Identification, Evaluation, and Maintenance (Paperback)
This book is of great value and interest to the collector of fishing equipment. They will know what to look for when attending swap meets and yard sales. It will also help them to make repairs if needed to their finds.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappiontment, January 21, 2001
By 
"dahudda" (Lancaster, Ca United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Antique & Collectible Fishing Reels: Identification, Evaluation, and Maintenance (Paperback)
The book is very general! There are not very many specifics about any of the reels. In fact,I personally own several reels from manufactors of reels listed in the book that are not even listed. I was very disappionted. If I would have been able to review this book in a book store,I would have not purchised it!
