Description

Richard Wheatley Standard Clip Box (could be the 1400 Series?), Wheatley Silmalloy a classic piece of British fly-fishing tackle.This has been used but not for many years and it's clearly been lovingly cared for, I'll add more vintage Flys to the selection as we have more unwanted flys in plastic containers - pop luck with what you get but all flys are also vintage, see last photos of flys addedMade in England between 1935 and 1960Wheatley Silmalloy metal stamp + made in England with the Richard Wheatley logo stamped, both clearly visible.Hinges, spring clips are all intact, working as they should and aren't showing any signs of misuse - this box looks like it's had very little use at all!?The main side hinge and latch are in great condition, not stretched or twisted. The lid closes nicely and stays closed (it doesn't pop open).Free postage included - care taken with packaging to protect item.I also have another vintage Richard Wheatley Silmalloy fly box listed, I believe they were purchased around the same time on a fly fishing trip to Mull in the early 50's and not really used much at all after that. I still have some fishing rods available, most of the highly collectable ones have sold but there are a few interesting rods available *see my items*I'll be listing loads of items over the last week of April and first week of May, check out my other items and recent customer feedback 100% positive. Great care taken with packaging to ensure your items arrive as advertised.Thanks for looking and happy bidding
