Eppinger Dardevle Midget, 3/16oz Nickel fishing spoon #3914

A polished Nickel finish defines this 1 1/2" (3.5 cm) spoon, offering a high-reflectivity surface that collectors appreciate for its clean, classic aesthetic. Originating from Lou J. Eppinger Mfg. Co. in Dearborn, Michigan, this Dardevle Midget represents a staple of American tackle history that moved to the Dearborn location in 1959. The lure weighs exactly 3/16 oz (6 g) and is presented on its original red-and-white graphic card, which bears the specific product code 3914. On the front of the spoon, the metal is stamped with the manufacturer's trademark devil head, a hallmark of the proprietary dies used in their USA factory. The hardware includes a sharp treble hook secured by a heavy-duty split ring, built for durability during casting or trolling. This specimen is unused, preserved in its original packaging which shows some soft wear around the perforated hang hole and corners.
