Hand-painted details depicting the iconic Camel Joe mascot define this unique collector's piece. Weighing in at 1/3 oz (10 g), this 2" (5 cm) deep-diving floating crankbait carries the product code 17056. The Camel color pattern is a notable piece of 1990s promotional history from the manufacturer Rebel. A prominent clear plastic diving lip with a pre-installed split ring allows it to reach deeper water columns, while internal rattles provide an audible presence. The finish is remarkably well-preserved, showing the distinctive blue eye and textured fur detailing on the hump-backed body. The hardware consists of two bronzed treble hooks, with the belly hook attached via a sturdy metal hanger. Rating this specimen at 5/5, its condition reflects a carefully kept item from a legendary cross-industry marketing campaign.
