Silver and white tones cover the wooden body of this classic lure, which represents the manufacturing era between 1949 and 1970. Tipping the scales at 1/3 oz (10 g), the Bomber 200 series was engineered for a diving depth of up to 6.5 ft (2 m) to reach active predators like pike, asp, and perch. The finish shows an intricate mesh scale pattern, accented by a distinctive red gill slash, a single black shoulder spot, and large orange eyes with black pupils. A condition rating of 3/5 captures the authentic history of the piece, with soft signs of use and minor paint loss visible primarily around the nose and tail sections. Dual treble hooks are secured to the underside of this USA-made specimen, identified by product code 8502. The rear-mounted metal diving plate remains securely attached, serving as a defining technical hallmark of this vintage floating model's construction.
