“A RARE SIZE REEL THIS ONE, SIMILAR IN DESIGN TO THE HARDY PERFECT BUT NO BALL BEARINGS (EUNOCH), STAMPED WITH CARTER & CO DETAILS. ALTHOUGH NOT STAMPED MAYFAIR THIS IS THE MODEL NAME AS DESCRIBED IN THEIR CATALOGUES. REEL HAS MOST OF ITS ORIGINAL COLOUR. REEL WORKS FINE WITH NO SPINDLE WEAR OR SPOOL WOBBLE, WITH NICE CHECK, WHEN THE REEL IS DISMANTELLED THE PAWL DOES TURN IN BUT EASY TO TURN BACK IN WHEN PUTTING BACK TOGETHER AND CHECK WORKS FINE AND IS CRISP SOUNDING WHEN REEL IN USE. FOOT IS CORRECT LENGTH AND HAS ONLY THE LIGHTEST OF DOWNTURNS TO THE ENDS, BUT THIS IS ALSO A NICE SHORT FOOT THAT SUITS MODERN RODS. (3" LONG). OVERLAPPING FOOT OVER THE BRIDGE IS A TELL TAIL THAT THIS REEL WAS BUILT FOR CARTER BY SMITH AND WALL, THERE IS AN OLD LINE ON THE REEL BUT THIS IS AS FOUND. ALL AS PER PHOTOS.”
