 Ok, here is another pre war Penn. The long beach 60. 1941 saw many changes in some of Penn models. The long beach 60&65 changed to plastic spools. The plastic spool continued thru 1947. Penn did offer a metal spool for the 60&65 during this time, but it was optional and extra cost. The pre war plastic spool 60&65 we're boxed with a label that designated L.S. on the label, which means "lightweight spool". The plastic spool has larger arbour than the metal spool, and has less line capacity, but the pre war L.S. models still stated the same 250yds for the 60 & 300yds for the 65. In 1946&47 the yardage was corrected to 200yds & 250yds for the 60&65, and the label no longer had the L.S. designation.



 So now that you're totally confused, I have here a 1942 Long Beach  60 in correct pre war box and it does have plastic spool, but no L.S. designation on the label, but the label also doesn't mention metal spool, so yes, this is a 1942 Long Beach 60 with correct box. This can all be very confusing, but small tidbits can solve most questions. The spool does have the pre war lip, and all parts are non numbered and era correct. The Long Beach60&65 came with non clamp seat, but from 1941-47 Penn offered a clamp seat option for the 60&65. It was a very expensive upgrade @ $2.50 on a $5.50 reel, so Penn used them up as standard equipment on the 1941 & 1942 L S. 60& & 65's as well. If you find a lb60 with a clamp seat, you have a tough reel to find, but they are out there. 1941/42 were the only years the lb 60 had a clamp seat as standard equipment(not an upgrade) according to the catalogs.



 Here is 1942 Long Beach 60 with no L.S. designation, but it is definitely pre war (250yds) and has correct spool, and also has the clamp seat that Penn put on almost every 1941/42 plastic spooled Long Beach 60.
