Pretty rare -- it is original --

Made in the crinkle paint both in green and wine red like on the old 240 Juniors --

These were destined for only certain areas of Europe, I believe -- but do not know for sure.

Sometimes, US servicemen would bring them back from overseas.

  330N (special model)
-          green [Art.-Nr. 1033 901 Grün]
-          wine-red [Art.-Nr. 1033 901 Rot]

Best,

Fred

Fred I figured you'd be the one to know. The info is much appreciated just saw it and found it interesting, wasn't planning on buying it. I don't care to own reels I would be afraid to fish with in fear of degrading the value.
