A bold yellow diagonal stripe cuts through the black enameled finish of this iconic casting spoon. Resting right on that yellow band is the unmistakable black devil head logo, a trademark of the Eppinger company since its early days in Detroit. This 1/3 oz (9 g) specimen measures 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) and carries the specific product code 19353. Turning the lure over reveals a clean silver-toned back, deeply stamped with "DARDEVLE SPINNIE U.S.A." The hardware consists of a single treble hook attached via a robust split ring, designed for dependable hooksets when casting for panfish or trout. Every detail of the construction reflects the high-quality standards Lou Eppinger established over a century ago. This particular lure is in 5/5 condition, showing a vibrant, glossy finish and bright, reflective metal on the concave side.
