VFT11900
For sale here is a Hardy Perfect with a highly coveted 1912 check and un-blemished red agate line guide. 3 3/8" diameter. Super tight spool/spindle fit. Full length smooth brass foot has not been filed or altered in any way. Ivorine handle spins freely. Strap over tensioner works perfectly. This reel has a very unique hook-keeper installed into the frame. John Shaner of Hardy USA agrees that this feature is not factory original but could have been done as a custom request. I think it adds greatly to the uniqueness of this reel. I took many photos of this area in the spirit of full disclosure. The hook-keeper is very securely attached to the frame with no movement whatsoever. Let me know if you have any questions.
