Museum Archive: Vintage Eppinger Dardevle Devle Dog 5200, 1/4oz Nickel fishing spoon #15411

Stamped clearly on the reverse with the "DEVLE-DOG 5200 DETROIT U.S.A." mark, the polished surface of this Eppinger spoon reflects its Michigan heritage. This Nickel finish model offers a high-flash profile well-suited for bright days or clear water. It measures 1 1/2" (4 cm) in length and carries a weight of 1/4 oz (7 g), making it a versatile choice for the casting rod. Identified by product code 15411, the lure features the classic teardrop shape and concave belly that have made Dardevle a staple in tackle boxes for over a century. The original treble hook remains securely attached by a split ring at the rear. The overall condition is extremely well-preserved, rating 5/5 for its clean and bright appearance.
