South Bend 50 Narrow Spool Tournament Style Bait Caster Fishing Reel in the Box in Very Very Gently Used Condition. The Box: Very Solid- Very Clean. The top panel has a puncture and an inked price. The remainder of the box is very clean- no issues- no seam rips- no tears- no separations- no crud. Pretty clean and crisp. Note; this box is from South Bend/ Gladding when the reels were made in Japan. This box is not original to the reel!!!!!!!!!!! The Reel: This reel is super clean! The green finish is about 99% original and factory clean. If fished- it was minimal with great care and no abuse. There is a little wear though the green finish on the rim bottoms. Loaded with light green braid fishing line- test may be 10 to 20 lb- not sure???? Has the cool flat paddle knobbed crank- neat. Just oiled the spool bushings- LW. Main gear shaft. It runs great- quietly – smoothly – easily. Every thing works fine- no issues. The plating is all clean!! This narrow spool by South Bend was made in the U. During the Shakespeare production days. This is NOT a Gladding version of the 50 Model but a much higher/ better quality reel by Shakespeare. The reel and box are both 50 models but are not an original combo. This is a quality clean version of the South Bend 50 narrow spool.

Up for consideration is a super rare beer sign!!! Unbelievable survivor attic find!! From the late 1950s. This Hellmans Old Style Beer sign is a thick cardboard composite with a raised plastic sailfish mounted on front for great 3D effect!! Cool vintage deep sea fishing sportsman look. A must have for your collection!! The beer glass is not detached and has not been glued. It was bent in storage when found. Colors still very nice. Marlin has no cracks and looks great!!
