Default Does anybody recognize this old bait casting reel?

Hello, Does anybody recognize this old bait casting reel?

It's 2 3/8" across, 2 1/4" diameterbrown bakelite? sides
and ivory colored bakelite handle grips with ath sane
ivory colored bakelite spool center. The level wind,
handle and rod connection piece are crome. The only
writing on it is "MADE IN USA" stamped on the underside
of the rod connection piece. The line on it is a 2 stran
twisted linen.

Any information would be appreciated. Thank you.

It looks like an old Shakespeare reel, probably around 1930s era. If it still
works, you could find an old 4 foot fiberglass baitcasting pole and go trolling
for trout on the lake with it!
