Yes, it is. I had one years ago in the original round tin they came in. The style of reel is known as an "Indiana Style" fishing reel. Many different manufacturers of Indiana style reels and Kiest reels are probably the most common. Your price is about right on but you just have to find a collector of Indiana style reels.
