AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Vintage fishing line spool from the Water Queen brand, Kroic GT model, presented here on a dark blue fabric surface that highlights its colors and retro design. The spool is cylindrical, with a large central hexagonal hole allowing it to be installed on a suitable holder or reel. The top of the spool features a beige finish with turquoise blue inscriptions and patterns, typical of a vintage style.

On the visible side, the following mentions are clearly distinguishable: "WATER QUEEN" in turquoise blue relief, accompanied by a stylized fish motif. Below, the mention "NYLON" indicates the material of the line contained on the spool, in accordance with the provided keywords. The lower area features the inscription "KROIC GT" in bold black letters.

The left side displays a technical box detailing the characteristics of the line: "100 m" for the length, "Ø 45" for the diameter (0.45 mm), and "13 k2" (probably for resistance, 13.2 kg). This information is clearly and legibly printed.

The edge of the spool, visible in the photo, shows signs of wear and chips of blue color, testifying to previous use and the antique nature of the accessory. No major structural defects are visible on the photographed side, apart from these classic signs of wear for a vintage fishing accessory.

The spool still seems to be filled with line, although the exact amount of remaining line cannot be visually determined. The ensemble evokes the robustness and simplicity of fishing accessories from past decades, with graphics typical of the 80s-90s, without a precise dating being affirmed.

Condition
