Eppinger Wingbat, 1/2oz fishing spoon #22828

Weighing 1/2 oz (14 g), this vintage Wingbat showcases the unique engineering Eppinger brought to their Dearborn, Michigan-made spoons. The lure measures 2 1/4" (6 cm) and is finished in a vibrant fluorescent pink-orange, a color choice designed for high visibility. Cataloged as product code 22828, the specimen is easily identified by the two metal blades hinged to the sides of the spoon body, a design element distinct from the traditional Dardevle shape. The original packaging remains intact, featuring the iconic "devil" logo and the green and blue header card typical of the mid-century era. The hardware consists of a sturdy, bronzed treble hook and solid metal attachment points. This specimen is unused, appearing just as it did when it left the factory floor, with the finish preserved behind the clear plastic display bubble.
