H.J. Frost Reels

H.J. Frost & Co. - New York, NY

H.J. Frost & Co bought the Rochester Reel Company in 1908. They trademarked the name "Kelso" and applied it to a lot of the tackle they sold. H.J. Frost & Co didn't make anything, but sold a wide range of fishing tackle. The Frost business remained in New York and the reel manufacturing was in Rochester, NY.
