Museum Archive: Vintage Rebel Super Teeny R, 1/8oz fishing lure #15687

A distinct black "kill spot" marks the center of this Rebel Super Teeny R’s cream-colored flank, providing a classic visual target for predators. Measuring exactly 1 1/2" (3.8 cm) and weighing in at 1/8 oz (3.8 g), this floating crankbait is a prime example of American-made tackle from the Rebel lineup, specifically cataloged under product code 15687. The finish features a detailed grey scale pattern along the back, which transitions into a subtle orange-tinted belly and a sharp red gill slash near the prominent yellow eyes. Designed for a working depth of 1 ft–3 ft (0.3–0.9 m), the lure incorporates an internal rattle chamber for acoustic presence while being cast or trolled. Looking closely at the clear diving lip, the "REBEL" brand name is stamped directly into the plastic. This specimen remains in excellent condition, rated 5/5, with its original bronze-finished treble hooks and paint looking as sharp as the day it left the factory in the USA.
