Museum Archive: Vintage Norman DD22 UV, 1oz Tiger UV fishing lure #17253

Vivid Tiger UV patterning defines this 1 oz (25 g) deep-diving crankbait, a classic piece of American tackle engineering. Carrying the product code 17253, this specimen is in exceptional 5/5 condition, retaining its translucent yellow-green body and warm amber belly. It is specifically engineered to reach depths of 19.6 ft (6 m), utilizing its substantial clear diving lip to reach the strike zone. The internal rattle chamber provides a constant acoustic presence, while the floating buoyancy is a technical hallmark of the DD22 design. Under UV light, the finish transitions into a bright, glowing neon green, maximizing visibility in deep water. The hardware, including two dark-finished treble hooks, remains robust and clean.
