Museum Archive: Vintage Heddon Tiny Torpedo , 1/4oz White / Light Blue / Red / Stripes fishing lure #0111

A striking white body accented by a light blue head and distinctive silver 'rib' stripes characterizes this specimen's finish. This Heddon Tiny Torpedo, product code 0111, weighs a compact 1/4 oz (7 g) and measures 2" (5 cm) in length. Its surface-running design is anchored by a single rear propeller, which creates a distinct bubble trail upon retrieve. A subtle red accent on the throat provides a splash of contrast against the primary white and blue palette. The hardware includes two treble hooks, with the belly hook secured by a classic metal hanger and a rear hook trailing behind the prop. For those targeting bass or panfish on the surface, this prop-bait is designed to be fished with a steady retrieve or sharp snaps to engage the tail spinner. The painted eyes feature a black pupil and yellow iris, maintaining a classic vintage aesthetic. This specific lure is in excellent 5/5 condition, showing well-maintained paint and clean metal components throughout its build.
