Superior reel Who made it?
Superior reel Who made it?
Picked up a reel that has Superior on the name plate and on the other side "Steel Pivot Bearings" around the spool cap. On the bottom of the foot has 60. Has black plastic side plates with a german silver frame. Just wondering who the maker is of this reel.
