GUYS!!!!!!
Get real about this reel!
The fact is, this is a very good, durable, dependable reel. I have a few Penn reels, and a LOT of art work. The point is: I collect artwork based upon: "Do I like it?"
Penn Reels, especially vintage ones, are really good quality, and are worth owning if you are a fisherman. These reels are extremely dependable and very much worth owning, and using. Anybody who wants to sell theirs' for less than $30, please contact me, I'll buy 'em sight unseen.
See you in 20 years when these are $100 each.
