Cortland no longer makes the Retro (or any reels, for that matter). Due to a change in management, the company no longer offers anything but line products. Fortunately there seem to currently be quite a few Retros available on line, both new and used. I recently bought two (a I and a II) for considerably less than the original list price. By the way, the Retro is a very attractive, lightweight reel with classic good looks.
