A vibrant salmon-hued flank transitions into a deep teal back on this well-preserved specimen, exemplifying the aesthetic of mid-century American tackle manufacturing. Measuring 4 1/4" (11 cm) in length, this Heddon Zara Spook features a crisp, black script "Heddon" stamp on its side, identifying its USA origin. The painted orange eyes with centered black pupils provide a focused look against the tapered head, which is accented by a single dark gill spot. At a weight of 3/4 oz (21 g), the lure possesses the necessary mass for stable casting into the wind. The hardware includes two robust treble hooks that remain clean and functional. Assigned product code 12486, the lure's finish is rated at 5/5, showing the original gloss across its iconic cigar-shaped body. The belly tapers cleanly toward the rear hook hanger, completing a profile designed for specialized topwater presentation.
