Shakespeare President No. 1970 Model FK Bait Casting Reel EX
Item History & Price
Here is a quality Made in U.S.A. Shakespeare President No. 1970 bait casting reel, a model FK, first made in 1951. There are a few subtle differences between this reel and the Model GD (1947) that I listed earlier tonight. The anti-backlash control has been moved from the handle side plate to the tail plate bearing cap, and there is no stamping on the bottom of the foot. Shows very little wear. No cracks in... the plastic spacers. Cranks very smoothly and all mechanical functions work well. A fine reel to fish or collect!
