A very nice Dingley reel made for Westley Richards, and set up for rare left-hand wind. 3 1/8" diameter. Very nice condition overall with a tiny bit of cosmetic pitting on the frame edge near the foot, and the foot itself has a tiny bit of twist but it should mount properly. There are no other issues that I could see. The reel's patina is excellent, as are the lineguard, foot, and pillars. Telephone style latch, with an ivorine handle which spins freely. A simple click and pawl check internally with D1 stamped into the inside of the frame. "1" is also stamped into the side of the foot. The reel packs into a simple zipper pouch.
