A gleaming Silver scale pattern defines the body of this 3 1/4" (8 cm) vintage specimen, featuring the classic stamped 'Baby Torpedo' script on its flank. This 1/3 oz (9 g) Heddon Baby Torpedo, carrying product code 7644, represents the craftsmanship of a brand that has influenced topwater fishing since the early 20th century. The lure is equipped with a single rear propeller, a signature hardware component designed to churn the surface during retrieve. Examining the hardware, you'll find two sharp treble hooks secured by classic surface rigs and a line tie positioned at the nose. The painted yellow eyes with dark pupils remain bright, set against the detailed scale stenciling that covers the upper half of the silver-toned body. This particular lure is in excellent condition, rated 5/5, showing the care taken in its preservation. The metal prop at the rear shows no signs of bending, maintaining its original profile for surface-disturbing presentations.
