Hardy Featherweight with Spare Spool

Hardy Featherweight with Spare SpoolA nice Hardy Featherweight fly reel with a spare spool. Made in England. Near mint condition with some mounting marks to the foot but no other signs of use that I could find. Two screw latch plate with a reversible single screw nickel silver line guard that can be set up for either RHW or LHW (it is currently set up for LHW). The reel comes in the original box, pouch, and paperwork while the spare spool comes in the original box with tissue paper

the reel is very clean throughout

Some have mailing labels
