1910 Hardy Greenheart
Posted: Thu Feb 15, 2024 9:49 pm
Hi, I was hoping somebody may be able to help me to identify a Hardy greenheart I have purchased.
A47232 - 1910
3 Piece, 2 tip sections (one a couple of inches shorter than the other). The longer tip has been broken at the end and roughly put back together but when measured has a total rod length of exactly 12ft.
I noted three options from the Hardy Manufacturing dates forum post, page 5. According to the date / material / length I believe it could be a Murdock (Murdoch in catalogue), Celebrated Alnwick Greenheart or Second Quality Alnwick Greenheart.
I used a 1914 catalogue to look at the options and think it is probably a Celebrated Alnwick Greenheart?
Appear to be the original fixtures and guides. Locking ferrules, green whippings. Any information greatly appreciated.
