Hardy 'The Princess' Fly Reel – Near Mint Collector's Set with Original Pouch & Manual
Description:
The crowning glory of this exceptional vintage collection: the legendary Hardy 'The Princess' Fly Reel. Superbly handcrafted by Hardy Bros Ltd in Alnwick, England.
As part of Hardy’s esteemed Lightweight family, The Princess is highly sought after for its slightly larger capacity, making it the ultimate balance between light weight and serious backbone (perfectly suited for #7 lines, sea trout, or big river trout). A true masterpiece of classic British engineering that combines a crisp click-check mechanism with timeless aesthetics.
Condition:
The Reel (Cosmetic & Mechanical): In stunning Near Mint condition. The original deep dark finish is beautifully preserved, showing virtually no rim wear or scratches. It proudly retains its original golden factory sticker stating "Hardy Dry Fly DT-7". Mechanically 100% perfect: ultra-smooth rotation, flawless drag tension adjustment, and a loud, clear signature Hardy clicker.
The Manual: Complete with the highly collectible, original paper booklet "A Quality Fly Reel by HARDY - The World's Finest Fishing Tackle" in very clean, crisp condition.
The Pouch: Comes with the original blue and beige padded Hardy zippered pouch. The zipper functions perfectly. Note for transparency: This pouch comes from the same high-end private collection and perfectly matches the condition of the previous items.
Specifications:
Brand: Hardy Bros Ltd (Alnwick, England)
Model: The Princess
Includes: Original zippered pouch & original manual
Country of Manufacture: Made in England
An investment-grade, highly complete collector's set that is very difficult to find in this immaculate condition. Will be packed with professional care and shipped worldwide with full tracking and insurance.
