Vintage Eppinger Dardevle Imp, 2/5oz Red / White / Nickel fishing spoon #11340

The classic nickel finish on the reverse side of this spoon features the bold "DARDEVLE IMP U.S.A." stamping, a hallmark of the Eppinger company’s Michigan-based production. Displaying the iconic red and white striped pattern, the face of the lure shows honest character with paint loss and chipping along the edges that reveal the underlying metal. This specific specimen, carrying product code 11340, measures 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length and weighs 2/5 oz (11 g). A subtle devil head logo is stamped into the white paint near the top, a signature detail from the Dearborn-based manufacturer. Assigned a condition rating of 4/5, the lure retains its structural integrity with a robust treble hook and split ring assembly ready for the water. The concave body shape is designed to produce a steady wobbling motion during casting or trolling, mimicking a distressed baitfish.
