I posted the photo on the 1929 Hardy Perfect a while ago and it inspired quite a thread. I was talking to my buddy from Campbell River today and got a little more info.
Andre, you were right this is a little older than 1929, but still in the early to mid '20s. You were having some issues identifying it for good reason I might add! It is very rare, as it is a "one-off" that was made for the Ivor Johnston Sporting Goods Company in Boston Ma. and it has an aluminum reel foot rather than the standard brass one. On the photo the fly covers it - unfortunately.
