He'll be at the used tackle sale in Chilliwack, Nov. 14/15. I think he is bringing 14 new reels. http://www.fishingwithrod.com/yabbse/index.php?topic=38579.0

If you listen to the video again, he says he puts it on par with an Islander or a Kingfisher.
The click pawl is much like it.
He also says that the reels are hand made and that no 2 are identical.
I posted the video because I remember that guy did that video awhile back, and good luck finding any other sort of video a about Campbell's. At the very least, you could have watched the video and noticed similarities and differences yourself as he takes it apart and plays with the reel.

He has already had someone try to buy all the reels before the sale and has said no, the reels are for the sale.

Milner bushing reels are a brass bushing and Campbell is a aluminum bushing.
Both are great hand made reels.

Again, this is not why I want his contact info which someone gracefully gave me (thank you). I want it so I can talk with him and make arrangements to check out his reels or to find out where I can find him to check them out and most likely make a purchase.

If I could make the tackle sale then I would but it's just not in the cards and I cannot wait another year for the next one

Don had about a dozen reels at the sale today, sold out in under an hour.
