Dad’s old gear …. What reel is this?

[Porter2]

Went thru an out door storage compartment at
my parent’s house and found these two set ups. He used these in the 60’s-70’s and I believe they have been collecting dust the last 40+

Both are one piece rods. 6’6” and 6’
Green rod is a St. Croix glass rod with ocean city reel. Brown is a South Bend glass rod but I can’t make out the reel maker. This is the only marking I can find. Any idea? Thanks.

Might be markings on the reel seat as well identifying the model.

Cleaned up the rods. But working on the reels. Soaked in soap and water for two days then drained. Soaked two more days in soap and water. Took toothbrush to get gunk out. Now moving forward with the Boeing stuff.
So both reels were compatible in terms of use/salt/rust decay. Always reluctant to jump in full so I started with the ocean city reel After two cleans and now resting in water with soap think this one will turn out good. The bigger penn has gone through one application of cleaning But already can tell it’s improving Deciding wether to disassemble and clean or just do a rough external cleaning I might use them once but probably donate Can t accumulate much more

I can’t accumulate or hoard much

@Porter2 Have you considered making a framed shadow box for family heirlooms and including some pictures in it?

I see lots of room for more stuff. What you've shown is the amount I usually take on a trip. Get back to us when all the corners in your house are full.

That Ocean City reel turned out nice! Is it right hand wind?

Yes it is.

Try some CLR cleaner. That stuff is like magic for tarnished stuff.
