Hardy Bros Alnwick Black Japanned Dry Fly Fishing

Description
Hardy Bros Alnwick Black Japanned Dry Fly Fishing Box & Flies ANTIQUECollectable dry fly box retailed by Hardy Brothers of Alnwick at the beginning of the 20th century. The brothers started their partnership back in 1873 designing and manufacturing some of the highest quality of fishing equipment available.

The other half of the box features two rows of six, or twelve compartments for keeping dry flies separate. All sections are lidded with six transparent sliding covers, an innovative solution. This Hardy case is supplied with a collection of period dry flies.
The lid carries the coveted Hardy Bros Ltd Alnwick badge.
