Great find Benni,  that will be a cool display reel.

Chris,  I too got a first year Seaford, was hoping the JK markings were inside, but no.
      What was said was, that these Seafords were very late 33, and Penn used there first shipment of side plates, hence no markings
  It's over in the vintage section, quite interesting.
here's mine.

   I have one of those mottled picture tail plates for a 78...but that's all I have...Benni has the whole enchilada!
Nice score on the Seafords too Chris and Col. 8)

Beautiful reel Benni ;)
Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

Penn 25th Anniversary Edition 113 4/0 I just acquired, I believe it's from 1957, can anyone confirm?

Cool, bet that 25th anniv. sticker makes the box even more collectible. Looks brand new.

This 710 was a local buy. Box has some issues but I believe this is a time capsul reel that has never been used.

Thanks everybody, it was a steal of a buy and I'm loving the history of it as well.

Another great one you found, Chris!

Nice Greenie Chris.
  Ok, you have the JK markings,  I've got 2 now, one with original box, and both have no JK, both were Penns first side plates used.
  Good find

Well, I did the big clean up on my 4/0 LH reel,
    Swapped out a few parts from a donor reel, reel seat, inner rings etc.
It's not perfect, but it's free of the green stuff and because it's a LH, I will place it on the shelf.....
