Notes:

A fine little 2 3/4″ Hardy Sunbeam. The reel is has the factory grey enamel finish, smooth brass foot blade and bickerdyke line guide fitted for right hand wind from the factory. The line guides are riveted in so changing to left hand wide using the guide is not easy. Single check and turns with a nice constant crisp check. Circa 1940s.
