In 90's, ABU business in Japan was sold to Mamiya, a trading company spcefically dealing with import cameras like Leica. All '92 burgundy (wine) color reels I've dealt with had 020003 foot number. These are said to be produced in only 1 lot each. In 1992, then burgundy 1500C/2500C were offered. In '89 and '90, ABU Japan offered black 1500C/2500C reels as Japan special through Olympic Fishing. Most 1500C and 2500C reels were in silver or blue gray silver, but ABU also had a few colored reels. Here are some of the 1500C and 2500C released in Japan, especially in rare colors. Instead, ABU Japan continued sales of them in the country. In later period US market didn't see many of those small reels except modified models like Don Iovino's special models.
