A nice Hardy Perfect trout reel, 3 3/8" in diameter. RHW. Approximately 11/16" spool width. Duplicated Mark II check with a nice satisfying click on the inbound and outbound. Nice leaded finish that is in excellent shape overall. The frame, plates, and spools are in great shape. One pillar has a little bit of line wear at the corner but it's mostly cosmetic and quite shallow. Straight line logo on the winding plate. Inside the winding plate are the initials "TA" for Thomas Appleby, presumably, who was at Hardy from 1920-1947. Smooth brass foot that appears unmodified and is 2 7/16" in length. Nice overall reel here and it should hold a #6 line perfectly.
