Vintage Hurd Super Caster 4' Combination Rod & Reel with Checkered Walnut Stock

Description

For sale is a
Vintage Hurd Super Caster 4 Ft. Combination Rod and Reel with a Checkered Walnut Handle and Pistol Grip
.
The serial number on the reel is 48183.
It has a round, black steel rod with 3 bridge style guides and a cast aluminum reel.
The walnut stock is in beautiful condition with excellent checkering and has all 4 screws.
Mechanically everything seems to work like it should.
The casting button pushes down with little effort, the line guide moves smoothly, the handle spins freely and the clicker still works but doesn’t seem to quite catch all of the way.
It is my understanding that this is one of the earlier models, pre WW II, and that it is unusual in that it is only 4 ft. long from butt to tip.
I consider this to be a very nice example of these hard to find classic fishing rods and reels.
