Hardy Princess Reel w/Spare Spool HL Leonard Medium cigar grip

Medium cigar grip

The rod comes with a copy of John Taintor Foote's "A Wedding Gift"

The simple coin-edge knurl around the top allows for easy removal and the cork itself has been lightly impregnated with a special silicone/parafin mix that will help keep the ferrules lubricated

Originally made in the late 1940's and went from the original purchaser to the current consignor

An unusually rare Leonard "Parabolic"

Hardy Princess Reel w/Spare Spool HL Leonard Medium cigar gripA nice Hardy Princess fly reel, 3 1 2" in diameter in used but mechanically sound condition. Weighs 6. 0 ounces on my scale, though that's with a fully loaded line and backing. Currently set up for LHW and the cage and faceplate show normal wear. Mechanically sound with a smooth click drag. Comes with an additional spool in used condition with another line wound on it. Both reel and spool come in the standard blue hardy cases.
