Museum Archive: Vintage Eppinger Dardevle, 1oz Hammered Nickel / Blue fishing spoon #3823

Featuring a classic hammered texture, this Eppinger spoon split-colored in blue and nickel is a heavy-duty specimen weighing in at 1oz (28g). The 3 1/2" (9cm) body shows the iconic split color scheme common for casting or trolling. Flipping the lure over reveals the stamped text "DARDEVLE DEARBORN MI.," which confirms its heritage from the company's era after moving from Detroit in 1959. Identified by product code 3823, the lure maintains a clean finish and a high-quality 5/5 condition rating. The front displays a distinct dimpled surface designed to catch light, while the back is smooth polished nickel. It comes rigged with a strong, vintage-style treble hook securely attached to the tail end.
