That is a tough find in any condition. That one is beautiful. Really great find!

Picked up this 10/0, nice but nothing special, but I do have a few questions.  Looks to be pre mid 60's with the medallion at 3 o'clock, no tail plate artwork. Is the handle factory?  I've read the squared off ends came in the 70's on the big reels, but not this color.  I haven't put a screwdriver to it yet but looks like an external drag setup. Anyone able to date it better than the 15 year window I've figured? Thanks.

I just looked at my 10/0 and it has the medallion at 3:00.  The handle is red and has the blunted taper.  I don't know the age of it.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

Looks like an International handle to me. !!   John Taylor
