Museum Archive: Vintage Bomber model 7A , 1/2oz fishing lure #21053

Weighing 1/2 oz (14 g), this Bomber Model 7A features a classic deep-diving profile built for reaching depths of 8 - 10 ft (2.4 - 3.0 m). The 2 3/4" (7 cm) body is adorned in a high-contrast orange and red finish with bold black spotting, a pattern well-regarded for its visibility in various water conditions. Identified by product code 21053, this floating lure is equipped with an internal rattle system, making it a functional choice for both casting and trolling techniques aimed at zander or pike. The clear plastic diving bill is designed for steep descents, while the overall build retains its structural integrity despite some visible surface marks. Rated at a 3/5 condition, the specimen shows authentic signs of previous use that highlight its practical history on the water. It carries two original-style treble hooks mounted securely to the belly and tail.
