Museum Archive: Vintage Eppinger Dardevle Midget, 3/16oz Nickel / Blue fishing spoon #2110

At just 1 1/2" (3.5cm) in length, the spoon displays a classic vertical split finish of deep blue and polished nickel. A subtle etching of the iconic devil head logo sits in the center of the face, a hallmark of Eppinger’s Michigan-based craftsmanship. The reverse side is fully polished and carries a crisp "DARDEVLE MIDGET U.S.A." stamp, identifying this specimen as a lighter variant designed for precision casting. Tipping the scales at 3/16oz (6g), the lure is equipped with its original small treble hook and a sturdy split ring. This product code 2110 model remains in 5/5 condition, retaining its factory-bright sheen with no visible signs of use. The concave profile is a direct result of Eppinger's proprietary dies, ensuring the construction matches the standards set over a century ago for light-tackle trout or panfish sessions.
