From my dad’s collection stored 25 years in attic. This large reel appears to work properly including on/off clicker. Reel is unique as it has “sold by E Vom Hofe”stamped on handle. Cleaned as good as I could get it but still has some wear on it. There is what could be a very thin crack on the Bakelite. I am not sure if it’s a crack or it was made that way
