Julius Vom Hofe -- H.L. Leonard Raised Pillar Salmon Reel Vintage Fly Tackle All sections are full length

All sections are full length with a mild set in one tip that can be easily straightened

Unfortunately someone etched "10" into both sides of the reel and "10A" on the spare spool

screw-posts rather than rivets for the pawl-spring anchors

There is a bit of rim rash but this is purely cosmetic

A good fisher here

Julius Vom Hofe -- H.L. Leonard Raised Pillar Salmon Reel Vintage Fly Tackle All sections are full lengthFor sale here is a HL Leonard Raised Pillar Salmon Reel, made by Julius Vom Hofe. Nickel silver rims, pillars, screws, hard rubber side plates. 3 7 8" diameter (4 1 4" across pillars) and 1 1 2 to 1 3 4" spool width. Includes a faint stamping on the faceplate with says "HL Leonard Patent No." and then I think it reads 191813, which would be the Philbrook & Payne patent number. The four position sliding drag adjustment bar and fixed click works well.
