This reel is in very nice condition with plating in fine condition. The original box is also in very good condition showing little storage wear. Original manual is also in good condition showing just a fold. Amazing reel, extremely well made and continued to be made by ZEBCO for many years after 1962.
NOTE: Any white on the reels rim is glare, its a beatiful reel
