Shakespeare Service 1944 Reel Model EA Level Wind F*S Music my Grandfather owned a dairyThis is a Tru Axis 1944 T Model EA Casting Reel by Shakespeare. It is a light saltwater, heavy freshwater level winding, star drag reel. One of the great ones to come out of Shakespeare. Overall this one is in extraordinary shape. This was my dad's and appears unused a beautiful eye catcher. and shows no prior fishing use. This reel works perfectly, mechanically and cosmetically the reel is excellent. The handle spins freely and the clicker is strong.
