Well, here it is! These are my reels. I know this collection doesn't hold a candle to a bucket full of Vom Hofe's, but I'm sure proud of it. I promise to upgrade as the reels get better, and i figure out exactly what I'm wanting to collect.

This Shakespeare meter reel has a pretty neat story and has 3 generations in family.
My grandfather, was riding his bicycle as a boy when he ran this reel over in a paper sack. It was sitting in the middle of the road! He picked it up and used it for many years, however it has seen its better days.
