A scarce, Hardy Super Silex multiplier reel, 3 1/4" and in excellent original condition. These reels were made for a relatively brief window between 1930 and 1939. No meaningful issues that I could find, apart from the typical cosmetic wear for a reel of its vintage. The break-release works as it should with a free and easy free spool. The drag adjustment similarly functions properly. The handle on the multiplier is brown and spins easily. Ribbed brass foot. For the mechanically inclined, the internals of this reel are a pure delight. The initials "RM" are stamped on the interior of the frame (Robert McLain, 1928–1939). The reel comes in a heavy handsome leather fleece lined Eddie Bauer case for protection. A very fine example of this rare reel.
