Vintage 1910-1920\'s Hardy Bros LTD \"The Perfect\" 3-1/4\" Fly Fishing Reel mark II

IT IS MADE IN ENGLAND BY HARDY BROS. (ALNWICK) LTD.

SOME INFO ON THIS PAT NUMBERS: BY \"THE CLASSIC FLY RODS FORUM\"Patent #24245 was applied for on October 19, 1910 & granted on June 01, 1911 ... the scematics submitted on 10/19/1910 bear an early variant of what would eventually become known as the gun-lock spring & pawl check -- i.e., the 1912 check. Specifically, patent #24245 covered not only the radial and free-floating disposition of the pawl, but also a silent retrieval feature as found on Silex reels. Though #9261 is referenced in various catalogues, one of the earliest being a (1917) wartime Hardy catalogue, and is stamped into various Hardy reels, usually in juxtaposition to #24245, there are no records indicating that patent-status was ever granted to #9261 ... this pattern not totally alien to Hardys, as other reconciled (patent) numbers can also be found on earlier Hardy tackle and in fact, #9261 could still found stamped into Hardy reels well into the \'20s.James Hardy makes mention of the fact that #9261 covered the compensating checkwork and because #9261 & 24245 are seemingly coterminous, I have to wonder if the non-fouling nature of 9261\'s regulated checkwork wasn\'t \'absorbed\' into patent #24245 early in the application process, by someone in the patent office.

Hello and thanks for checking out our sale & store. We are Kohl Kurios, Jayson Kohl & Scott Kohl. We’ve been selling cool vintage stuff, obscure antiques, interesting collectibles and anything related to music SINCE 2010. Please check out our ever-growing store!

We are passionate about our collectibles & stuff and hope to give you the best experience possible. We aim to describe every detail of our items up for sale or for sale, and will grade them as accurately as possible, so you as the buyer have no unpleasant surprises when your item arrives. If there is ever a problem with your item, please message us here at , we will always work with you to solve any problems. Record buyers are encouraged to use the grading chart listed above. Any serious or unique flaws on a record will be mentioned next to the official grading.

Since we will be so accurate with our grading, we will refund your purchase if there are any discrepancies from our grading. We just ask that you send the product back to us prior to your refund. We will not refund anything that is within our grading, however. Please read the description carefully before offerding.

PAYMENT IS EXPECTED WITHIN 7 DAYS AFTER sale ENDS. Please, if you\'re going to offer, be prepared to pay as soon as possible.

SHIPPING WITHIN THE USA IS FREE ON MEDIA AND FIRST CLASS SHIPPED ITEMS.

Methods of shipping we use for domestic buyers:

MEDIA ITEMS (records, books, cd’s, tapes, etc): FIRST CLASS if 9 oz. or under, MEDIA MAIL if over 9 oz. (LP records never weigh below 9 oz, so they always ship media mail)

ITEMS WEIGHING UNDER 13 oz will always ship FIRST CLASS (unless it\'s a media item, then we\'ll use the cheapest method).

ITEMS WEIGHING OVER 13 oz will usually ship PARCEL POST unless they fit nicely into a PRIORITY MAIL flat rate box… and if so, they will be shipped using PRIORITY MAIL.

We will use other methods of shipping by request if requested BEFORE you finalize your payment. Please take note that we may charge you for the extra amount if you happen to request a more expensive shipping method.

All packages are shipped with USPS tracking. If you’re wondering where your package is, there’s no need to contact us, just view your transaction page on and you can track your package there.

PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT WE OFTEN PAY FOR BOXES AND PACKING SUPPLIES WHICH IS FIGURED INTO SHIPPING PRICES.

WE SHIP ORDERS ON TUESDAYS AND FRIDAYS ONLY. If you make your payment by 8pm EST on a Monday or Thursday evening, your package will be shipped the next day.

ALL INTERNATIONAL BUYERS SHOULD WAIT TO PAY UNTIL THEY RECEIVE AN INVOICE FROM US. THE SHIPPING COSTS LISTED ARE A GUESS AND ARE MOST LIKELY TOO HIGH. WE CAN SAVE YOU MONEY ON SHIPPING IF YOU WAIT TO PAY WITH OUR INVOICE. We appreciate that some international buyers may want to pay immediately, but we\'d rather save you the money if you can wait a little bit. We promise to send an invoice within 1 business day (but will most likely be within a few hours, depending on the time of day). Example: an LP record only costs $12.00 to ship to Canada, but it costs $18.00 to ship to Australia. So if you’re from Canada and you buy an LP, and don’t wait for our invoice you could be losing $6.00!!!

AS OF JANUARY 27, 2013: USPS HAS INCREASED THEIR PRICES DRAMATICALLY. PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT THESE NEW PRICES ARE OUT OF OUR CONTROL.

We offer a splendid discount for multiple purchases for international buyers, but you must wait for our invoice in order to take advantage of these discounts. Please contact us for more information, as it depends on the total weight of your package to consider issuing a discount.

WE DO NOT SHIP TO BRAZIL DUE TO THE COUNTRY\'S POSTAL SERVICE\'S HORRIBLE REPUTATION.

PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT INTERNATIONAL PACKAGES OVER 4 LBS MUST BE SHIPPED PRIORITY MAIL, WHICH CAN BE EXPENSIVE.

WE ACCEPT PAYPAL ONLY, PLEASE AND THANK YOU.

By offerding on or buying our items you accept and agree to these terms.

There is and up date for this reel!!It appears there is a extra spring and a tongue(clicker)for the reel whichwill make it complete for use as itwill make it function as originally meant too withdrag and click mode. I have to mention that the springthat is now in it is broken but it has anextra inside for replacement. I thought It had a broken tongue(clicker) which turns out wasnotbroken it was just loose from its holder position. so this will come with it.This makes this reel a much more desirable one.
