i have had this reel over 40 years and now its time to let it go. It is my best all time reel and i believe like others that there are no more or at least none discovered. on lang's book november 3 and 4 , 2006 it is on the front cover and on page 155 with a write up. mine is not stamped. was it a first attempt and decided to make more and stamp them? we don't know but it is the same size to the tee and even the screws and placement . the knob is even identical. my new camera does not do it justice. this thing is gorgeous and clicks like a fine pocket watch . obviously do not know prices nor does anyone else because there just aren't any. it was appraised at 10 to 12 k back in 2006 and i never did see what it actually sold for? museum quality and thats where it belongs . 2006 langs auction catalog
