This listing is for a Vintage Realistic 7" Metal Take-Up Reel No. 44-280.  This Realistic 7" Metal Take-Up Reel is in good condition showing normal wear.  There is a small light crease on the edge of one on the openings as shown on image 4.  There was recorded  tape on the reel when I acquired and I unrolled it...I did not notice that the small crease had any affect....the tape rolled off smoothly. Thanks for your interest and email if you have any questions.
