Title: Ted Williams III spinning reel looks like a Royal Maroon
Post by: festus on February 16, 2018, 12:46:07 AM
I saw this Ted Willams III  on ebay a few days ago.  I'm not really interested in buying, it's far overpriced, but maybe I'll keep my eyes peeled for another for a parts reel.

Can anyone tell me if this is a Shakespeare 2052 clone or maybe a 2062?

   That looks a lot like a 2052. I think I read somewhere here that Shakespeare made reels for Sears...but so much info spread around...I can't remember where I saw it. ???

That's what I thought, 2052 with a black spool.

2052 it is. IV is the 2062 and VI is the 2081.
