This image is from Drop Me A Line, I'm told .... and although not clear it is a 'second version'*, still with the knurled knob anti-reverse knob and is a half bail reel. It would seem Walker had not long obtained the reel and in the accompanying letters he states no right hand wind version is available yet and he is trying to persuade the manufacturers to make one for co-respondent Maurice Ingham.
* The 'second version' is a Mitchell Reel Museum expression. The reel has many differences from the first ones made and Mitchell wouldn't know what the expression second version meant, but there are small changes to internal gears with regard to the faces that rub against one another and paint finishing. The main difference is that the 'second' has 'Made in France' in raised letters on the right hand side of the body shell or housing.
There's a fair bit about the reel changes here:

EDIT: 5.7.2021 Well the pictures gone now but it wasn't a second version Mitchell. A trick of the light and the wrong reel anyway.
The Clarissa reel has now been found and has a proud new owner
