A vibrant Honeycomb Splash finish covers the face of this classic Dardevle Spinnie, blending bright yellow and orange tones into a distinct hexagonal pattern. Weighing in at 1/3 oz (9 g) and measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) in length, this Eppinger creation is a staple for those who appreciate Detroit-born tackle history. The front features the iconic black devil head logo, while the reverse side is stamped clearly with "DARDEVLE SPINNIE U.S.A.," a mark of quality from a company that has been producing lures in Michigan since 1906. This particular specimen, identified by product code 19319, remains in excellent condition, showing a crisp 5/5 rating with its original silver-toned back finish still bright. Attached via a sturdy split ring, the original treble hook is present and ready for display. Lou Eppinger moved operations from Detroit to Dearborn in 1959, yet the manufacturing process for these spoons has remained focused on the same high-quality standards for over a century. The concave shape of the metal body is designed for casting into various depths.
