Below is a reel that was given to me.  It was found in a garage sale, it seems to work properly and has no marks of the manufacturer.
    Somebody knows this one for sure. ;)

Another person said it is an early Penn.

The push button free spool works great like am ambassador.

The reel has a lot of use.  And more left.

It's a nice size for many species of 🎣 fish.

It's a Pflueger, just not sure which model yet.
Sea King 2158 was close...so it could be in that series...or possibly a knockoff. The reel seat is a different design and the model I found online was engraved with the model.

There's a lot of collectors in here, someone might be able to pin it down for you.

Was the "mechanical thumber" an optional add on part? Couldn't find any pics of a reel online with that.

Nevermind...here's one:

Just ask and thou shalt receive... You can't beat this site for info.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.
