Museum Archive: Norman Big N UV (1970s), 1/2oz 1921 TS fishing lure #21343

Fluorescent yellow tones dominate the classic 1921 TS color pattern of this vintage specimen from the 1970s. Measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) and weighing in at 1/2 oz (14 g), this Norman Big N is a substantial piece of American tackle history. It remains in unused condition, still housed in its original red-bordered retail box which carries the product code 21343. Engineered in the USA for both casting and trolling, this floating model includes an internal rattle system to provide acoustic presence. The diving lip is designed to reach depths between 2 ft and 5.2 ft (0.6–1.6 m). Visually, the lure is defined by bold vertical black bars against the neon base, a prominent black strike point near the head, and distinctive yellow-ringed eyes. High-quality treble hooks remain attached via original split rings, showcasing the manufacturing standards Norman maintained for their Big N series.
