Antique Billinghurst side mount Safety Fly Fishing Reel patented August 9th 1859 , very rare!

This is, what I believe the first model of the W. Billinghurst Fishing Line Reel, patented on August 9th, 1859. The reel has a diameter of 3\" and the 19 rings have a diameter of 3/4\". Please compare the drawings of the patent papers with this reel, it is the same as pictured in the drawings! Unbelievable!
To compare the pictures of the patent drawing, click here! Then, click on the image of the patent drawing to see for your self!
Please note the different provision to guide the fishing line described in the patent description as, \"One of these braces is forked, and has attached a loop or guide, through which the line passes. This loop is seen in Figs. l and 2, and more distinctly in Fig. 4.\" Now look at the forth picture above, the \"forked brace\" is visible in the foreground on the right.
