Penn levelmatic No. 920

Howzit Gents, I have been collecting penn reels now for just over year and a half. Got my hands on a penn level matic 920, and old 9/0 senator.
I thought I new the range of penn reels made over the year but no, there is always going to be a suprize. Anybody know the penn levelmatic? Seems there where 4 models made, 910, 920, 930 and 940.
The first time I have seen one.

Notes the two prices. One must have been from a tackleshop in umtata.
The price have the name SPARGS umtata on it, and the date 10 03 83.
So cool.
