Museum Archive: Vintage Eppinger Dardevle Huskie Junior, 2oz Red Devle fishing spoon #19366

Stamped clearly on the nickel-finished reverse is the identification "100 SERIES LOU J. EPPINGER HUSKIE JR DEARBORN MICH," marking this specimen as a classic Michigan-made lure. Measuring 4 1/2" (11.5 cm) in length, the spoon features the iconic Red Devle pattern—a bold white stripe flanked by deep red with the recognizable devil head graphic printed on the face. Weighing in at 2 oz (58 g), it carries substantial heft for casting or trolling for larger species like pike or muskie. The hardware includes a robust, oversized treble hook attached via a heavy-duty split ring, while the front features a clean attachment eyelet. This particular Dardevle Huskie Junior, identified by product code 19366, is in 5/5 condition, appearing exceptionally clean with the painted finish and the bright metal reverse excellently preserved.
