Leonard Mills (Julius Vom Hofe) Raised Pillar Model 50A Fly Reel

764


A nice Leonard-Mills model 50A trout reel set up for RHW. This is a classic circa 1925 raised pillar reel that was made by Julius vom Hofe for the Mills shop. The spool and frame are aluminum, and the foot, pillars and handle are nickel silver. It has the distinctive ivorine winding knob and an on/off click button that works as it should. The Leonard-Mills stamping on the front plate is strong. This reel has seen very little use, and all parts are original and without issues. It comes in the correct D block case with the stamping “50” on the rear strap.

There are cheaper options but our experience has been that you get what you pay for and that it's not worth taking risks when shipping what are often one-of-a-kind items. Your shipping estimate will be calculated at checkout and if you have any questions please contact us. Please note the buyers are responsible for any applicable import duties or fees that may levied. Due to the importance of packing items carefully please allow up to two weeks for arrival (depending on how busy we are) though we certainly do our best to get items to you as expeditiously as possible.

Unless otherwise noted, all items come with a 3-day inspection period during which they can be returned to us for a full refund (provided that they are in the same condition in which they left our shop). Return shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. If an item is returned, we will issue a refund within 10 days upon receipt. Refunds will be either administered by providing a check or, when possible, by canceling a credit card purchase.
