Antique Bobbin & Other Items

[skiptomylu]

An old friend I grew up with told me his dad was a big fly fisherman back in the 1940’s and he had some of his materials. He wanted to know if I wanted them since he had no use for it, of course I said yes thank you!

anyway there are a few books, feathers, thread, hooks and tools. Thought I would show y’all this bobbin.

There is a hole in the metal tube just above the spool and then it would come out the top end.

Books


Tools and a small fly box.


Hooks, wax & and fly he tied


Thread/Silk, loose feather parts for tying.


Hope to find out what these were used for. You can see holes made in some and maybe a couple of notch type places?
