Authentic Chas Farlow antique brass fishing reel. This piece features the highly desirable script engraving on the faceplate: "Chas Farlow, Maker, 191 Strand, London." Farlow was one of the premier tackle makers of the 19th century, and the 191 Strand address dates this specific piece to the late Victorian era.


Condition Details:
