Nickel finish on the underside distinguishes this 3/16 oz (5.3 g) spoon as a specialized choice for bright conditions. Measuring 1 1/2 inches (3.8 cm) in length, this Eppinger Dardevle Midget carries the iconic red-and-white striped pattern on its convex face, centered by the signature devil-head stamp. Identified by product code 816, the lure remains attached to its original presentation card, which lists prestigious accolades like the Sportsman’s Club of America 'Dolphin Award.' This specimen is unused, holding a condition rating of 6. The packaging reflects the brand's history in Dearborn, Michigan, indicating its mid-century production. Construction consists of a stamped metal body paired with a sharp treble hook, intended for casting techniques near the surface or mid-depth columns. The red and white enamel remains glossy, providing high visibility against the polished metal base.
