Stamped clearly into the brass reverse, the 'DEVLE-DOG 7700 DETROIT U.S.A.' marking identifies this piece as a classic from Eppinger’s historical Detroit production era. This specific specimen of the Dardevle Devle Dog 7700, listed under product code 6073, measures 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) and carries a weight of 1/2 oz (14 g). The finish showcases the iconic 'Five of Diamonds' pattern, featuring red diamond accents over a bright yellow face. On the upper portion of the enamel, a distinct dark green speckled area adds a unique visual texture to the original paint. The hardware remains functional with a silver-colored treble hook attached via a metal split ring. Rated at 4/5, the lure displays well-preserved color and minimal signs of its age, while the brass back maintains its luster despite small points of surface wear. These heavy-gauged spoons were manufactured using proprietary dies in the USA for casting and trolling.
