ABU Reels/Rods Collection
The Nine Groups of A.B.Urfabriken Reels
Record, Ambassadeur, Abumatic, Half Encapsulated, Spinning, Fly, Pimpel, Mooching and I.G.F.A.
I am working on building my collection slowly, the primary reason being is that I have a strict budget to adhere to. The advantage of this slow process is that I get to know each reel or two that arrive from a particular seller and I have a week or two or a month to get to know it, photograph it, find an appropriate place in the display case and hopefully continue communications with the seller. Ah well, that's my justification for not being able to spend hundreds of dollars whenever I feel like it!
