It's rare Benny, but perhaps more because of the red plates than the age.

Cool! Been thinkin bout a 209 or 309 for my " line management challenged" son. I don't like to mess with his fun when he's crankin up 75yds, of line with 1-2 fish on--"pay attention to the line lay on your spool!" I sent him a Penn 350 but it still needs a little persuasion to stay good n' even. To date, he's been usin a L.B. 60.

Benni, you probably goda good size collection by now. Are you thinkin a postin it at some point in time, in the "Show Your Collection" thread? Or maybe here?
Fishing tackle is an art form and all fish caught on the right tackle are"Gfish"!

 you guys are scoring some nice green Penns lately....I am huge fan of them also, and never get tired of gazing at them

 How can a person not love the smallest Penn senator?? Its reminds me of a shrunk down 16/0 ;)

This one was about same price as a well used 113H. I was shopping for a donor 113H but my computer froze as I scrolled across this 1/0.   ;D  ;D

Hi Don, it was just a little dusty and shelf grime. Very simple cleaning is all it took. I don't per say "polish" any reel parts, unless you consider my fingertips and nevr-dull  cotton wadding "polishing". The shine you see is 100℅ factory finish. The trick is the last wipedown must be clean grease free towel to get the best possible shine.

BNIB 85L Seaboy $20 delivered to my door. I bought it for the spool, but might shelf it since it's so shiny. I know I need to dust it off  ;D

Nice score Darin !!

That little reel is very capable and overlooked by most that don't know what they're missing.

Thanks guys, it's pretty cool to handle an older reel that's brand new, I always imagine what one would try to catch with it back in the day...
