Title: Penn Photograph in Australia
Post by: conchydong on December 13, 2018, 12:45:51 PM
Some strange things pop up when you are browsing the web. This is an old photo of Penn representatives meeting in Oz. Thought some of you might have a interest.

It says it's a 1950's photo, but there's a Penn 700 on the top shelf. Didn't those come out in '66?

Good eye, early 60's I think 62, hanging out in Key West with no reference books. The handle is not first year which was green and didn't rotate the knob inward like in the pic.
