THE ONLY EXISTING SET OF THOMAS & THOMAS FLY REELS. FIRST ISSUE CLASSIC FLY
REELS. This is the ONLY Existing Set of ALL FOUR sizes of the original
and first issue of Thomas & Thomas Classic Fly Reels. Originally made in
1978 for Thomas & Thomas by the Hart Reel Company of Long Island, NY, makers
of the Marquesa and Umpqua fly reels. The original plans were to produce
four sizes of the Classic reel, however the largest size was dropped before
production, making this the only known set to include the 3 5/8” diameter
reel – built as a size sample, but with no handle. The decision was made to
only go with three reel sizes, so this is the only largest sized reel in
existence. The remaining three examples are all fully functional, as issued,
with a 3 1/4”, 3” and 2 3/4” diameter. All having aluminum parts with
Anodized Aluminum side plates, these are all in new unused condition with
original "Thomas & Thomas" stamped leather reel cases. Truly a one of a kind
set of trout reels. M. $2500.00 |

55800. VOM HOFE - EDWARD. 2-9/16". MODEL 360 PERFECTION FLY REEL. Size #3.
Arguably the most desired and sought after vom Hofe fly reel of them all. "EDW
vom HOFE, N.Y. Pat. Jan.23.83" on back bearing oil cover.
Single hole in center of foot. On/off click at 6 o'clock on the back plate.
Counter balanced S-handle. Hard rubber side plates. Nickel Silver End rings,
Cross-pillars, Click check switch, Screws, etc. Slotted handle screw. 5
Position Adjustable drag trout reel. Very Rare reel in the perfect size for
a #3 or 4 line and backing. Serial # L463. Excellent plus original
condition. Professionally
cleaned and serviced to perfect mechanical condition. All parts bright and
shiny. Only blemish is some very minor denting of the spool rim on the
handle side of the reel, barely discernible in the photos here, and of no
mechanical importance. As an extra bonus, it comes in the original Edward
vom
 Hofe hard leather reel case that is stamped at the bottom with the
Fulton Street address. The closure strap is solid and holds all together,
but the back hinge is partially torn and so the case is in only fair
condition. These reels have become nearly impossible to find in any
condition and one like this in perfect fishing condition is a real prize!
