Amos Wood calculated the relative frequency of finding a spindle inside of a float at 1 - 1,500. I wonder what the odds of finding FOUR spindles inside of a float are?
Whatever the odds may be this float is extremely rare.
Floats with four spindles are also referred to as 'Quad Spindles'. This quad spindle has one super thick spindle and three spindles that are the more normal 'thread of glass' type spindles.
This is an authentic used glass fishing float, it even still has fish scales stuck on it.
The glass ball itself measures about 5 inches in diameter.
This quad spindle has excellent provenance having been purchased directly from the incredible Japanese collection sold by 'meelchan55'.
