TT opinion:

Just in this super Tom Kelsey Aerial centrepin. These reels were sold by a company called Specialist Tackle in Romford. Each centrepin was hand made by one of two expert reel makers, Tommy Kelsey or Terry Daniels and were sold from around 1990 to 1999. The engineering is excellent. Various models were made by them and traditionally, the date of manufacture was marked by hand under the brass reel foot and this fine model is – 10 98 which is October 1998. In Garry Mills reel pouch.
