Museum Archive: Vintage Eppinger Dardevle Dardevlet, 3/4oz frog fishing spoon #18358

Measuring 2 3/4" (7cm) in length, this spoon features a distinctive frog finish with a cracked green texture over a yellow base. The reverse side of the polished metal is clearly stamped with "DARDEVLET" and "DETROIT U.S.A.", confirming its heritage from the Eppinger manufacturing lineage. Weighing in at 3/4oz (21g), the lure's construction is designed for casting into varied water conditions. The condition is excellent, rated at 5/5, with the paint and hardware remaining in a crisp, well-maintained state. Five yellow spots decorate the front, with the central circle housing the iconic devil head logo, a hallmark of the 18358 model. A sturdy split ring attaches the original silver-tone treble hook to the rear of the stamped metal body.
