Museum Archive: Vintage Other Dardevle Spinnie, 1/3oz White / Light Blue / Black dots #0058

At a compact 1/3 oz (9 g), this teardrop-shaped casting spoon offers a classic profile for mid-water presentations. Produced by the legendary Eppinger company under the Dardevle Spinnie name, product code 0058, it features a distinctive three-tone paint scheme transitioning from a pink top to a medium blue center and a clean white belly. Adorning the upper two-thirds of the body are two rows of bold black dots, a pattern designed to break up the silhouette during retrieval. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) in length, the spoon's concave surface is paired with a polished nickel back, a setup intended to provide a specific wobbling action. The hardware is in excellent shape, featuring a sturdy split ring and a sharp treble hook. This specimen reflects the high-quality American manufacturing standards the brand has maintained in Michigan since the early 20th century. With a condition rating of 5/5, the finish is exceptionally well-preserved, showing the original factory luster without signs of previous use.
