I picked up this reel and was wondering if someone here could give me a little info about it. Maker, time of anniversary, value or anything else would be
great. It is very highly polished and looks as though it was never used. It's diameter is around 2.5 inches.
thanks, Russell

Russell -
Something to consider: Be willing to share photos, information and the knowledge you have about your collection with anyone that has an interest in learning...........also share your knowledge to answer questions that others may have about items in their collections.........doing this will make you feel good and benefits this community ..................after all, what good is having knowledge that isn't shared.

Thanks for the reply Mark. Wow, I looked at westslopes sight and was suprised at the selling prices. I fish all the reels I have but will probably not fish
this one and move it on to someone who is a collector. Do you know what the one on langs sold for? Maybe I can get a trade from someone for a reel in a
steelhead size reel.

Here's a pic of my late 1980's Commemorative Ballan Heirloom serial#1 which is almost the exactly like the later(1994) T&T 25th Anniversary. The
reel was made to commemorate the beginning of his new Heirloom series and most likely the only one made and sold to a special customer of Bill's at the San
Mateo show. My reel and the T&T 25th Anniversary are the finest Ballan's I've ever seen.
Rifffling Hitch you're a lucky person. Dennis
