VFT2621
For sale here is a Leonard Mills raised pillar salmon reel made by Julius Vom Hofe. Stamped "Leonard Mills" on the faceplate. Aluminum frame, german silver components. "Light" and "Heavy" markings on the backplate on either side of the adjustable drag mechanism. The reel remains in very good condition. No cracks exist in the sideplates. The screwheads are in fine condition. The reel foot has been neatly altered. Mechanically, the reel operates as intended but the drag in its "heavy" position isn't as strong as it once was. The reel measures 3 3/4" in diameter (4 1/4" pillar to pillar) with a 1 3/8" width between inner frame edges. The reel weighs 19 3/8 oz. with the included backing. Comes with an old leather case in poor condition but worthy of restoration.
