Stamped clearly into the polished silver back, the "700 Series Lou J. Eppinger Huskie Jr. Det. Mich. USA" marks indicate this specimen's origins in Detroit. Measuring 4 1/2" (11.5cm) and weighing a hefty 2 oz (58g), this spoon is finished in the timeless Red Devle colorway, featuring a bold red surface with three vertical white stripes. The iconic devil head logo remains visible near the top line-tie. On the front enamel, some light surface marks and small chips from previous use are visible, which brings the condition to a very respectable 4/5 rating. This model, identified by Product Code: 21217, features a wide, concave body designed to oscillate during a slow retrieve. It is a classic American-made casting and trolling tool rigged with a heavy-gauge silver treble hook, intended for pursuing large predatory fish.
