    Description

    This is a 1969 Mitchell Otomatic 330 Jet Black Color.  This is a Rare Albatros Logo above the Handle. This was the Exclusive Dutch Distributor. Reel is fully Restored.  Crisp Auto bail is Silky smooth and strong, Completely new Rare Bail Assembly, Correct Circa Handle ! Comes with a  Circa Correct Spool. No play between rotor and body!  This reel is fully restored and working perfectly.  Serial #A010915 This is a Very Old reel over 50 years and Very rare especially in this Great Condition ! Another Collector Piece ! Hence the Asking Price ! My last one !
    Interesting Fact for AB Collectors, I have found this Albatros Distributor has 4 different styles during its Sales history !
    Another helpful Tip ! Mitchell Reels are designed to pump up the Oil out of the spool shaft. Recommend wiping off all of this Baffle Plate area to avoid dirt and debris collecting in the Reel regularly .
    If you are looking for the first time AB buy this reel is smooth as silk ideal for Bass and Trout Fishing ! Good for another 50 years of pleasure ! Just add a Quality Gun Oil after each season to the Bail Assembly and Lube Port at the bottom. ( This is a Collector Piece for the Glass Case, not for use)
    ( Stand not Included in the Sale )
    These reels ( Auto Bails ) almost never are working properly due to the complexity of the Bail System. All of my reels are preforming correctly after a minimum of 2 hours each of complete breakdown cleaning and rebuilding with Circa correct NOS parts.. IF you dont have one of these Fun to use One Hand Casting Auto Bails this is the perfect one to add to your Fishing Pleasure or Collection ! I rate this one a 10 Mechanical and 9.6 Paint.
