1 9/0 and 2 12/0 reels. Made in Long Island City, NY. Last photo shows Hoesel reel in Harlan Majors book, "Salt Water Tackle 1939." I would like to have a 14/0 or 16/0 if anyone has one available. Thanks! Enjoy!

Hi Jay, They/Hoesel made there cradles up to a size 18-0! Keep an eye out! Note the proper tip was made by Guerriri from Long Island City, Your reel has the right butt section. Tight lines Nick in NY

Hey Jay also note your 9-0 may have been disassembled and reassembled with the handle at the 12 o clock position. Just noticed...Tight Lines Nick

Those reels are just minty, Jay! Were they ever used? Must be pretty low miles! Nice adds to your collection!
