You are bidding on a vintage Edward vom Hofe Saltwater Fishing Reel. This is a model 621 in a size 9/0, which is 5" in diameter. It is constructed of nickel silver and hard rubber and features a factory leather thumb drag. The foot is full length and clearly stamped with the size, model and R serial number placing its manufacture in 1925. Gorgeous cosmetic condition with no side plate defects or blemishes. However, there is an annoying gear noise when the ...handle is turned and the spool flanges rub a bit. It could benefit from a tune up. Nonetheless, this is an outstanding example of a 9/0, which are becoming harder and harder to find. Match it up with the rest of the 621s (1/0, 2/0, 3/0, 4/0 and 6/0) I have listed separately for a complete set and instant Edward vom Hofe collection. Fantastic to fish or collect. Either way, I am starting the auction off at 99 cents and will let you determine its current value. Don't let this one get away. If you have any questions or are looking for a particular Edward vom Hofe reel please let me know. I will be listing a few more EvH reels in the coming weeks including a size 2 Perfection, some Peerless models, a 1/0 Tobique as well as other assorted Restigouches, a Commander Ross and an entire set of model 621s so please keep checking back.
