1/6 Hammer 55 A Swedish Abu Garcia Ambassadeur 6000-C fishing reel and case, , a Mitchell 3000 A reel, a Spincast Trail PP866 reel and a Leeda Rimfly reel in cardboard box

Oddly enough, I've seen several 6000's with #0507 01 (May '67) and #0607 01 (June '67) but neither change had taken place yet

Turn the drive gear upside down and you should see a black felt washer

My experiences with it Ive used this reel with both bottom-contact presentations such as Texas rigs, jigs and Carolina rigs while also experimenting with a plethora of moving lures such as crankbaits, jerkbaits and topwaters
