Any idea who tied it? From Lang's Auction back in the 90's when they were in Boxborough, MA. Writing on the back to Paul from? I cannot make out the name and in fact the name I can't decipher may not have been the tier. When I removed it from my wall today, I noticed the backing needs to be re-glued

Re: Killarney Gem
#2I'm pretty sure that's a Charlie Chute fly and signature. The long tag, hook type and point. Notice he spelled Kilarney the Irish way, with one L . An Irish fly with no mallard roof or jay throat is surprising
It appears there's been some bug damage, I can see the tail is missing, and some hackle has been eaten.
It could have been tied for Paul Martin, Paul Rossman, both very active in the 90's or a hundred other Paul's
