THE AMERICANS ARE KNOWN FOR HAVING PRODUCED EXCELLENT VINTAGE MULTIPLYING REELS WITH OR WITHOUT LEVEL WIND, AND THIS IS A GOOD EXAMPLE OF SUCH A REEL.  IT IS THE BRONSON MAKE "LASHLESS" MODEL NO.1700 - A, AND IN A FINE USED CONDITION.  FEATURES OF THE REEL INCLUDE OFFSET TWIN COMPOSITE HANDLES, LEVEL WIND LINE GUIDE, ON/OFF CLICK-CHECK MECHANISM AND A TENSION CONTROL KNOB.  I BELIEVE IT IS CONSTRUCTED OF CHROME PLATED BRASS - SEE PHOTO OF BACKPLATE SHOWING SMALL AREA OF WEAR TO THE CHROME EXPOSING THE UNDERLYING BRASS. IT COMES COMPLETE WITH GOOD REEL POUCH WHICH IS PROBABLY NOT ORIGINAL BUT DOES THE JOB NICELY.  THE £1 COIN IN THE PICTURES IS TO GIVE AN IDEA OF SCALE.   I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING VINTAGE FISHING TACKLE FOR MANY YEARS BUT WILL BE SELLING MY COLLECTION OF REELS OVER THE COMING WEEKS ON EBAY.  I HAVE ALWAYS TRIED TO BUY GOOD QUALITY ITEMS IN FINE CONDITION, BUT WHERE AN ITEM FALLS SHORT I WILL POINT OUT ANY SHORTCOMINGS.  I WILL COMBINE POSTAGE FOR MULTIPLE PURCHASES AND ALL MY ITEMS ARE UNCONDITIONALLY GUARANTEED.
