VFT2285
For sale here is a very scarce and early Hardy Uniqua model - 3 3/8" diameter with the early flat caliper spring check. Oval stamping "Hardy Bros Makers Alnwick" and flat line stamping "Hardy's Pat". Ivory handle. Mechanically the reel is still in excellent condition with a RHW fixed check and slight spool play like most Uniqua-style reels. The original 3" long smooth brass foot is unblemished. No cracks, chips, dings. Slight line grooves near one pillar. This reel can be found in Glenn Stockwell's book.
