Museum Archive: Vintage Fred Arbogast Jitterbug Jointed, 1/3oz Black fishing lure #22524

Finished in a classic deep black, this specimen features the iconic jointed body design Arbogast used to enhance their legendary surface lure line. Mounted at the front is the signature double-lobed aluminum lip, which bears the mounting eyelet and provides the distinctive "plop-plop" acoustic footprint for topwater fishing. Rated at a 4/5 condition, the body displays light wear and minor surface scratches that show its history, while the "JITTERBUG" stamp remains clearly visible on the top. Measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm) in length and originating from the USA, this lure carries the product code 22524 and weighs 1/3 oz (10g). The hardware consists of two belly and tail-mounted treble hooks, complemented by large, painted yellow eyes with dark centers.
