ORVIS 1874 PATENT COMMEMORATIVE REEL. 2-7/8". Charles. F. Orvis
III. Serial # 108. Around 1989,
Orvis produced the LIMITED EDITION of ONLY 250 Commemorative 1874
Patent Reels. This was done to honor the original and earliest Charles F.
Orvis fly reel. Each of these special reels were crafted as duplicate copies
of the original reel, even to the use of German Silver from which these
reels were made. These special reels are Stamped "C.F. Orvis Maker,
Patented, Manchester VT" on the back-plate, and carry the individual serial
number as "xxx of 250" on the handle plate. Handmade with a detachable
handle for ease of storage in their fitted Walnut box and provided with a
suede leather drawstring bag. Fully ventilated and made with a sparkling
finish, these reels are masterfully done and really do capture one's
imagination, as do the originals they honor. I offer one of these
magnificent collectibles, which is brand new in the original box, as issued.
DO NOT CONFUSE THIS REEL WITH THE LATER-MADE PRODUCTION
VERSION. This limited edition of 250 reels can never be duplicated, so the
investment potential here is very intriguing. M. 675.00. |
