    I found this in a box of tools in the family estate. everything was marked between 1870's-1890's in the box and I have no doubt this is in that period somewhere. I can't find another one to see what the handle/crank lever looks like. this one was broke off and they just tossed the reel in the attic. I looked for the original handle crank but it's long gone now. I can build one from scratch thou so I was hoping someone out there knows or has an image of one. thank you guys so much.
