Museum Archive: Vintage ​Rebel Blackstar , 1/2oz fishing lure #14608

A transparent red upper shell distinguishes this specimen, revealing the inner workings of a classic American-made deep diver. Measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm), the lure showcases a holographic gold foil insert designed to provide high-visibility flash. This specific model, identified by product code 14608, belongs to the Rebel Blackstar series. The contrast between the clear plastic lower half and the vibrant red back is striking, complemented by large, stylized eyes featuring white outer rings. The hardware includes two robust black treble hooks and a snap pre-fitted to the clear diving lip. This piece remains in 5/5 condition, maintaining a clean finish across its multi-layered body. The internal rattle chamber is easily observed through the translucent plastic, reflecting the precise manufacturing standards of Rebel’s USA production.
