Bronze-finished brass serves as the foundation for this 1/3 oz (9 g) casting spoon, providing the heft needed for accurate placement on light tackle. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm), this Dardevle Spinnie (Product Code 13741) displays a unique paint scheme featuring a warm brown-orange base with black polka dots and a deep red chevron at the line-tie. The reverse side is clearly stamped with the manufacturer's mark, confirming its origins in Michigan where Eppinger has utilized these proprietary dies for over a century. A sharp treble hook is attached to the tail with a split ring, showing the classic hardware configuration of the era. Rated at 4/5, the specimen shows character through light paint wear along the perimeter, though the core graphic remains well-preserved and distinct against the metal body.
