Re: Need help from an Ambassadeur Collector
An Ambassadeur friend said these are all collectible "but without good pictures of all sides including top and bottom estimating values would be impossible. Would recomend Langs if he is interested in selling."

20-50 dollars or more IF you have the leather cases with the tools and spare parts and depending on cosmetics, integrals, foot numbers
(1) Ambassadeur No. 5600 CDL 25th Anniversary Bass Pro Walnut Case
On Ebay in 2006 there was an Ambassadeur 5600 CDL. It sold for $1277. Quite a rare reel as it has a lower production level than the more common 5500 CDL. The serial number on the foot was 771100 and according to the seller, it is the first and only lot number verified for this exclusive model in Simon Shimomura's book, The Ambassadeur and I Final Chapter. The reel was described as mint, brand new, unused condition. It also came with its mint teakwood presentation box (with some beautiful dark streaking in the wood grain of the lid), its silver nameplate (never engraved), its paperwork, spare spool, bottle of oil and wrench. Yours could bring more ??? than the 2006 price depending on again cosmetics, integrals, foot numbers
(1) Ambassadeur No. LE 75Th Anniversary Edition with Wood Case
Ambassadeur No. LE 75Th Anniversary Edition with Wood Case 200.00 plus depending on serial number of 1000 .
As Paul mentioned pix. are pretty much the final word on these.
I am by no means an authority however I do collect Reels.
