TT opinion: Another rare size Hardy salmon Perfect reel just in from a collection. This 3.5″ diameter reel has original white handle, straight correct smooth alloy foot, bridged rim tensioner, 1912 check with original rotating line guard – Please note, the rim next to line guard has a few minute hairlines. This does not affect the usability of the reel.  Hardy details in circular form to face plate. A few minor line grooves to two pillars. A very good usable reel, rarely seen in this size.
