Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:372876 | Brand: Hardy |
I am listing another Super RARE Hardy that can be fished today or added to your growing collection.3 1/2" which is a hard find to begin with.The 1912 pressure bar is present. From 1912 - 1917 Hardy made several modifications including omitted the strap over tensioner. A Transitional Check system is in this reel, which makes it very rare. An extra to this reel is t...he Hardy Patented nickel silver rotating line guide, which would have originally been a special order for an additional cost.Ivory/Ivorene handle spins freely and is tight.The slick brass foot is correct for the reel, it is unaltered and unfiled. This reel is nice and tight. There is no wobble in the spool. Sounds and works as good as the day it was made. The reel is retaining much of its original leading.
Price includes shipping and insurance to lower 48.
Simply put, a very nice piece.
