J. Vom Hofe Surf Reel with Rabbeth Drag Handle

A large 4 1/4" diameter, 2" wide spool reel fitted with a Rabbeth drag handle that is stamped "Pat'd Jan. 14 '02". The hard rubber and nickel silver reel features a full-length foot with the typical hole in the center, a sliding click switch on the tail plate side and an angler added leather thumb drag. Condition is VG+ with a scant few tiny surface scratches on the tail plate side, and ever so slightly sun faded rubber.
