Hello All
 What years did Penn use red and green wrapping paper.

Good question.  I'm not sure if this is any indication of age, but I've seen the green logo, kind of an oval with the ends cut off, in the 60s and 70s blue/white boxes.  The same style logo in red has come with the 80s stuff in red boxes.

The green "round" logo has shown up with some early 50's spools and reels.  I don't think I have any of that logo style in red.  I've vac-sealed all that paper because it's so fragile.
