Got one on CL thats on mint condition. I don't have a use for it yet but the thing came with all the sales receipt and other trinkets. Got it for $60 as well.

wow! you even got a rose colored handle grip! :o
I think I'm gonna change the handle on this one too. I will do a pm on Alan shortly ;D
Nice reel. What is the date on the sales receipt ??
John
If that were my find it would never see a drop of water. It would sit on top of the box on my book case and get admired! Great find!
And I thought mine was in pretty good condition. Yours is really nice!!

The guy I got it from had other mint penn reels w the receipts. I think the paper got mixed up because the receipt said 11-06-80
But inside the box is penned in that it was purchased 2-14-70. White Front Sacto
Nevertheless the reel is in pristine condition. Not a single spec of rust or signs of pitting a on it.
