A rare Georg Lundwall "White-Faced Glider Click Reel", 2 3/4" diameter with a neutral bias drag. George makes these bench-made reels from his workshop in Sweden, and I've only seen a few of them stateside. This one is mint and unused. It weighs 6.2 ounces on my scale. Classic all-aluminum Vom-Hofe style reel with aluminum rims, sideplates, spool, and foot, polished stainless steel handle arm, pillars, and screws. The sideplates have a matte finish while the rest of the reel is polished. Smooth rim bands. Ebonite handle. In addition to the click the drag has a disc brake (two teflon discs and three stainless steel discs) which is adjusted via a dial on the backplate. This model was designed to hold a WF2/3 and 50 yards of 20# backing. It packs into a handsome leather case with "Lundwall / Sweden" stamped into the top and the original cardboard box.
