Mitchell 300 Anniversary Edition

Post by Reelman »

I have the Mitchell 300 PRO Annivesrary Edition. And I have been trying to find out if it is the one Dennis Roberts book. The closes I can get is the 45th Anniversary 1991/1992 but the paper work with the reel is stamped 21/12/89 and the paper with the exploded drawing and parts list is stamped 88. And the box he has pictured in the book is the green picture box. mine is in a plain green box with a small stamped 300 Pro Anniversary with a white cardboard sleeve as shown in the pictures in the link below. What I am trying to find out if this is the same reel as the one shown in the book listed in the book as coming out two to three years later with a different box.

Reelman,
It is definitely a Mitchell 45th anniversary reel. The boxes had a white sleeve. As for the other dates. The schematics didn't change much so you could repair as needed. Nice reel to have in your collection. Tougher to get than the other anni reels...
