Julius Vom Hofe Wm Mills Size 3 1/2 Fly Reel 9'9" Spool comes with fine leatherFor sale here is a nice example of a Julius Vom Hofe Size 3 1 2 fly reel in excellent original condition. No cracks in the hard rubber. The click is still nice and strong and can be fished right or left hand retrieve, actually favoring left. The reel foot is full length and unmolested. The on off click switch works fine. Stamped "William Mills & Son N. Y." on headplate.
