Title: Montgomery Wards ART NO. 60-6437A reel pictures
Post by: salmonfishing on July 23, 2017, 07:22:29 AM

Here is a nice Montgomery Wards  ART NO. 60-6437A reel. You can see in the pictures specifically looking at the drag system that this reel is a Laker 140B with a copper/bronze colored front cover and a Montgomery Ward badge on the side. The drag doesn’t have the internal adjustment like the 140 and 140A  Laker reels but mirrors the 140B system. Not only is it fun to collect Johnson reels but also reels like this Johnson made trade reel!

I have to thank Dennis for this one. He kind of pointed me to it.
