2 7/8” diam, marked "C.F. Orvis Maker, Manchester, VT Patented", third version, screwed construction and a screw-on oil cap, click works well. As are most Orvis reels of this era, the foot has been altered to fit a rod of the same time frame, but unlike most Orvis reels of this age, this example has retained nearly 100% of the original nickel plating, in overall Ex condition. Coming in its two piece cardboard picture box, that despite wear and the hole created by the spool shaft, is rare and desirable.
