This was mine as a kid in the 1980s. It was only used a couple of times before the handle broke and I more or less quit fishing. It was recently rescued while cleaning out my parent's garage. I seem to recall a plan to get a new handle but that never happened. It is in really good shape with an all metal housing. The reel works great in both settings. I'm just hoping someone can slap a new handle on it and use it.
