Museum Archive: Vintage Norman Deep Baby N, 1/4oz fishing lure #16246

Glittering with a multi-tonal mix of green, gold, and black over its arched back, this vintage crankbait showcases the classic craftsmanship of the USA-made Norman line. Measuring 2" (5.08 cm) and weighing in at 1/4 oz (7 g), the Deep Baby N is a quick-diving, noisy lure intended for reaching specific water columns. The clear, elongated diving lip is engineered to reach depths between 6 to 8 feet (1.8 – 2.4 m), suitable for both casting and trolling techniques. Its aesthetic features a white-to-silver belly with a distinct scale pattern that contrasts against the dark, sparkly upper half. Prominent red eyes with black pupils provide a focal point on the head. Listed under product code 16246, this specimen is in 5/5 condition, maintaining a clean finish and sharp original hardware with two treble hooks.
