I might be able to date the reel if I saw a picture. Using a Sears Trade name leaves me without a clue about the model.

Your reel is a Modell 603, made in the post war years. I would say yours is a 1958 or a little later because of the handle style. If it was earlier, the handle would have a integral wrench built into it. Here it is in the 1953 Ocean City catalog.
