A gorgeous Edward vom Hofe #2 Perfection trout reel, the most coveted trout model in the Vom Hofe lineup. At 2 3/4" in diameter, this rare little beauty is the perfect sized EVH to pair with your finest 7' or 7'6" rod. It is made of German silver and hard rubber, and it has the sliding drag disc with the delicate arrowhead adjuster underneath the “S” shaped handle. "360" and "D127" are stamped into the foot crossbar, noting the model and serial number respectively. The serial number dates this reel to 1911. "2" is stamped into the underside of the foot, noting the size. It carries the ‘83 patent on the rear grease cap with an on/off click that works as intended, and favors RHW. There are no cracks in the hard rubber, and no replaced parts or line burns in the rims or pillars. The foot measures 2 1/4" in length and appears unmolested. No pouch (the one pictured in the photo is not included). This is a centerpiece reel for any collection, and is quite rare in this condition.
