I think it is called an Ebro Matt
The ones on Ebay are old trout reels. Have a look to see if there is anything similar on there and you wll get an idea of what it is worth.

Ebro Model No 71
Made by Rogers Bros in Elsternwick Melbourne -1930s/40s. As is without handles it would be worth around $30.
