Hey Mo, get you a 49 you'll love it. In my pic it's the one in the middle. The other 4 are 49A's. wide bodies made for the South African market.

   I was saying it's the 349 that I need to get...I do have a 49...check out this jewel brother!

[The Great Maudu]

Love the handle. Be hard to upgrade that jewel

[Maxed Out]

I like the knob too.

That's a beauty there.

One of these days you are going to have to post a photo of your entire collection.

Maybe here...

   I've been meaning to do that...I'll see what I can come up with. It should be easier than photographing Ted's entire collection. I don't think they make a lens that wide!

The 109 handle is double knobbed.  The handle pictured is common on older 180 & 190 reels.   The double knobbed handle w/o oil ports was on the 77's.

My 77 had the double like you say, my maroon plate 109 had a smaller football knob counter balanced and my other 180s had a single knob non oiling port handles 24-85 handles on them.  It was different enough that I didn't part the reel out, cleaned and greased it, changed drags and will probably fish it just the way it is.

Here are a few of the various small cranks.

Best,

I like the 24-85 (larger single-handled one, with counterbalance) for the Penn 10, as Mo suggested.  Looking to get my hands on a dark-colored one soon.

I just picked up this 9/0 Senator. It looks to have a wooden knob and unnumbered.

Very nice! I bet the flanges on that spool are Nickel Silver.

[Superhook]

It has a Rosewood knob , Line post tie and forward rod harness and no part numbers . Late 1940's early 2nd generation . Good condition .Nice find.
