Marked and will look for them .

Thank you.  The stand and handle are similar to some older Penns.  Did different manufacturers use some of the same parts?

Well it is a 4 - 8 dollar reel in the shape it's in IMHO IF the one you posted is the one you are looking to Buy.. Providing the shipping is less than 10 bux .
