But it seems reasonable.Vintage Mitchell Garcia 330 freshwater spinning reel. Whether or not that is true, I do not know. On the Mitchells, some folks say that 1 out of 25 of the 300 size reels were manufactured as lefties. Quick just offered a switch from right to left by changing the orientation of the oscillating arm and connecting block inside the case - then switching the crank and crank housing to the right side, then moving the ball lever to the opposite position. Mitchell reels required (11) unique left hand parts to end up with a crank on the right side.īaffle plate, bail spring, counterweight, trip lever, drive gear, rotating head, frame housing, cover plate, handle shank, handle complete, & the bail wire.ĪBU/Zebco told us that left hand crankers just needed to get used to cranking with their left hands - no accommodation on the early Cardinals.ĭ.A.M. To me, it is interesting how seemingly similar reel manufacturers approached ambidextrous right/left cranking in these earlier days. Easy enough to switch parts around on these over the years - but harder on a lefty, because many parts are specifically oriented to left or right. If that is so, instead of black - then it might be an early high speed 401 or 411. Tommy is right about the 301 - which is a right hand crank for a left handed angler. Post the # & I'll let you know when it was probably made. If the serial number starts with C it was made in '52. ![]() If it was originally sold in the US it also had an upside yellow paper Garcia sticker across the bottom. It has a serial number on it that will indicate when it was manufactured. ![]() ![]() The one pictured is from somewhere between early 1952 & late '55. Lot's of great experience on this forum - what am I looking at here? Thanks! I don't know if I've ever seen a legitimate "Right Hand" Mitchell, so the whole side plate thing is kind of intriguing, I would imagine since they created a dedicated casting that they would have side plates with the proper engraving/orientation as well. Then noticed the upside down side plate, and at first thought "Aha, my Father in Law or one of his buddies swapped parts to make a Right hand reel".then I gave it some thought - wait a minute, the body is a dedicated casting.looked a little closer and realized that even the bail rotates to spool line opposite of all of my "normal" Mitchells. Got into another box today, and pulled this out. Thanks for all of the feedback - I can see how without the help here I probably would have "buggered up" the 330 when I started messing with it. ![]()
