Museum Archive: Vintage Bagley ET 2, 1/3oz fishing lure #18752

Adorned with a classic black-speckled pattern over a warm metallic orange-gold body, this specimen showcases the craftsmanship of Bagley's vintage production. Carrying the product code 18752, the Bagley ET 2 "Extra Tasty" is a notable piece of American tackle history from Winter Haven, FL. It weighs a solid 1/3 oz (9.5 g) and spans 2 1/4 inches (6 cm) in length. The lure is presented in its original retail packaging, which features detailed "tuning" diagrams on the reverse to guide anglers on adjusting the line eye for a straight track. While the vintage cardstock shows some foxing and signs of age from storage, the lure itself is unused and remains clean within the original blister. This ET 2 is a floating model, as indicated in its rare classification, and retains its original hooks and finish. Condition: Unused.
