Correct Hawkeye Box Label

Post by wrong99 »

Does this label look correct for the "Hawkeye" fly reel? I would greatly appreciate any comments.

Correct?

No.

The Hawkeye maroon box label looks just like that of a Goldenwest.

That the third or fourth time I've seen that one.

I wonder if its the same one or if someone made more than one.
