Museum Archive: Vintage Rebel REBEL HUMPBACK, 1/4oz S (Silver) fishing lure #7837

Silver (S) paint with a detailed cross-hatch pattern covers the body of this vintage REBEL HUMPBACK, which was assigned product code 7837. Weighing 1/4 oz (7 g) and measuring 1 3/4" (4.4 cm) in length, this USA-made lure features a prominent arched profile that earned the Humpback its name. The clear plastic diving lip is angled for shallow-water casting, reaching depths up to 3.9 ft (1.2 m) while targeting species like perch, chub, or pike. Prominent yellow eyes with black pupils are set into the head, providing a classic visual target. For hardware, the lure is equipped with two dark-finished treble hooks, which show light signs of use appropriate for its 4/5 condition rating. The metallic finish remains bright across the scales and belly, reflecting the quality materials Rebel utilized during this era of production.
