Tipping the scales at 1 oz (28 g), this brass-finished casting spoon offers the kind of heft needed for reaching deep-water haunts. This Eppinger Dardevle (Detroit) measures a full 3 1/2" (9 cm) and represents a classic era of American lure manufacturing. The reverse side features the authentic stamped branding identifying its Detroit, USA origins, a detail highly regarded by collectors of early 20th-century tackle. The product code 21237 identifies this specific heavy-weight model. Looking at the hardware, the treble hook is secured by a robust split ring, showing some minor signs of age. The brass surface displays scattered spots from years in a tackle box, yet retains a warm, lustrous glow throughout. Its condition is a respectable 4/5, indicating a well-preserved specimen that remains structurally sound. The concave profile is characteristic of the proprietary dies Eppinger used to define the signature silhouette of their spoons since the firm's founding in 1906. A small circular line tie at the narrow end completes the traditional setup for this Michigan-made legend.
