A very nice Hardy fly reservoir, black japanned exterior with a cream interior. The Hardy makers's mark is on stamped on a small medallion on the cover. Large clips inside with two swing leafs, giving this box capacity for 144 flies. Superb condition, probably the nicest I've ever seen for a box of this type. There are just a few small spots where the finish has flaked off on the inside. This would make a terrific addition for someone who loves classic salmon flies and wants to display them in a first-rate example of a box from this period.
