The creamy Pearl finish on this 3 1/4" (8 cm) body immediately identifies it as a mid-century classic dating back to 1955. This Diamond Jim Jointed Minnow, carrying product code 9815, is an excellent example of USA-made tackle from that era. Its articulated two-piece body construction is paired with a distinct, wide metal diving lip that features an integrated line-tie loop. Tipping the scales at 1/4 oz (7 g), the lure is outfitted with two treble hooks secured by traditional screw-eye hardware. The condition of this specimen is a 5/5, as the finish remains bright and the metal components show no signs of wear. You can see the craftsmanship in the transition between the jointed sections, which were engineered to provide a specific swimming motion when cast or trolled.
