EVH Perfection (#3 or 3-1/2)
JVH nickel-silver and hard-rubber “Perforated” reel (#3 or 3-1/2)
Talbot “Ben Hur”
First model Leonard BiMetal, smallest size or model with full handle
I'd also like one or two of the following ...
25-yard ball handle reel, nickel-silver
B.F. Meek #2, nickel-silver, handle at 12:00
Meek & Milam #1 or #2, nickel-silver, handle at 12:00
William Mills "Intrinsic" #2, handle at 12:00
This is not a finite list. If you have a top-quality, small, early, American fly reel, please get in touch.
I'll gladly pay cash for any of these reels, but if someone should want to raise a bunch of cash and acquire a nice reel at the same time, I offer the reels below for your consideration (these reels are not for sale) ...
Thanks for looking ...and please let me know what you have.
Dean.
