Museum Archive: Vintage L&S Bait Mirro lure "L&S Bait Company MirrOlure", 3/32oz Trout fishing lure #4054

Stamped clearly on the metal diving lip are the "L & S USA" markings, which identify the specific American origin of this L&S Bait Company MirrOlure. At a compact 1 1/2" (4cm) and weighing 3/32oz (2.5g), the lure features a Trout color scheme composed of a translucent tan body base with a series of dark spots and a distinctive red slash indicating the gill area. This sinking model, identified by Product Code 4054, is built with a sturdy metal lip designed to pull the bait down during the retrieve. The condition is a solid 4/5, exhibiting a soft aging that collectors appreciate while the hardware remains fully intact. Two sharp treble hooks are mounted with traditional screw-eye hardware, one mid-body and one at the tail, ready for a display case. The overall construction highlights the utility-first design philosophy of early MirrOlures intended for pike and walleye.
