Vintage Penn 16/0 Senator Big Game Tuna Marlin Reel

pennsanator Vintage Penn 16/0 Senator Big Game Tuna Marlin Reel

Bidding has ended

This is a vintage Penn 16/0 Senator which I think is from the 1960's maybe earlier due to the design of the spool center. It is used and has some scratches and bare spots on the chrome bars otherwise in good shape for it's age. Side plates are in great shape also. Appears to have a new base which has no flaws. Works perfectly with very smooth running operation.

This is a great reel for any collector or to be put back in service to catch that fish of a lifetime. Shipping is $25.00 within the lower 48 states. This will include insurance and a delivery confirmation number. International, Canada and others will be quoted. Don't miss your opportunity to own this piece of fishing history since older Penn Senators like this are rarely seen for sale. Thanks for looking and good luck (more...)
