Stamped deeply into the concave back with the "DARDEVLET DETROIT U.S.A." mark, this copper spoon reflects the heritage of Lou Eppinger's manufacturing before the company's 1959 relocation. At a weight of 3/4oz (21g) and a length of 2 3/4" (7cm), the lure provides the density needed for deep casting or controlled trolling. The product code 10747 identifies this specific variation, which features a solid copper finish on both the convex and concave surfaces. A dark-finished treble hook is attached via a sturdy split ring at the wider end of the teardrop-shaped body. The condition is a soft 4/5, exhibiting a clean surface that highlights the original metalwork. A single precision-drilled hole at the narrow end serves as the line tie-in point, maintaining the balance established by Eppinger’s proprietary dies.
