I have brought this gripe of mine up here before...

If you know the answer to that question, please don't email him the answer. Post it here. The readers of the forum would like to learn the answer also. That is what I started this forum for. It's a place for ORCA members to have fun and share information among the members and anyone else who cares to read the site.

I'm not implying that the poster put up his email address to hide the answer.

I believe what you have is a Penn trade reel (no star drag) but can't remember what model it would be as labeled under Penn. Late 1930s-40s production. I got a pretty decent example off of eBay a while back for $20. I see this reel and other Penn trade reels very similar to it every so often so I imagine it's not a very hard to find reel.
