Just drop them off at my house after fishing. I'll make sure Sal gets them. ;D

Ok John, now I'm really jealous. All I could say is... gorgeous. If you take those fishing, I'm not talking to you anymore. ;D
You just won't find those  in that condition today. Very nice John.

Thanks for the comments.
Sal, we can still talk!!  I did not have enough time to put line on them so I used my Penn 506's.

Beautiful indeed, what is the significance of the red spools?  (Sorry for the noob question)
It may not be very productive,
but it's sure going to be interesting!

Marking their 50th anniversary. Production lasted only a couple of years. Today these red spools are not easy to find, I got most of them ;D.

Now those are sweet as pie!  Man, even the boxes are in mint to near mint!  I'm starting to think you had an affair with a relative of Otto Henze!
PS- I do believe Sal when he says he has most of 'em ;)
Thanks for sharing a sweet collection,
Dom
