I got into this for awhile collecting and learning about these old reels. I gave it up after awhilen as kinda pointless.
But to was fun - sounds like I was off a few years in my estimates. -

I too have several. In fact my first baitcaster was a Shakespeare President my cousin gave me with salt and pepper catgut line. Direct drive and a solid fiberglass rod. I had gone to the big boys club. Caught lots of river bass on that old reel using a creek chub broke back darter. Crud but effective.
