Museum Archive: Vintage Eppinger Dardevle, 1oz Green / Yellow Frog fishing spoon #0024

Weighing 1 oz (28 g), this 3 1/2" (9 cm) casting spoon is finished in a high-contrast Green / Yellow Frog crackle pattern with large black spots. The face is stamped with the recognizable devil head icon, a hallmark of the Eppinger brand since its founding. Flipping the lure over reveals the stamped 'DARDEVLE DETROIT U.S.A.' lettering on the metal back, signifying its American manufacturing roots. This specific item, identified by product code 0024, shows a well-maintained exterior and original hardware, resulting in a 4/5 condition rating. Its oblong, concave shape is a technical design intended to create a wobbling movement through the water. A silver-toned treble hook is securely attached to the rear, prepared for either a vintage display or active fishing.
