Museum Archive: Vintage Storm Magnum Wiggle Wart​ pre Rapala, 3/4oz green fishing lure #19525

Measuring 2 1/2" (6.5cm) in length, this specimen represents the highly sought-after pre-Rapala era of Storm production. Carrying product code 19525, the lure features a deep green body with a subtle pearlescent sheen that catches the light across its rounded profile. At a substantial 3/4oz (21g), the lure is equipped with a large, molded diving lip that allows it to reach depths between 7.8ft (2.4m) and 24.2ft (7.4m) during casting or trolling. 'MAGNUM WIGGLE WART' is stamped clearly on the underside of the green diving bill, a hallmark of its manufacturing period in the USA. The oversized yellow eyes with black pupils provide a high-contrast focal point, while the internal rattle adds an auditory component to its construction. Its condition is a crisp 5/5, with the original finish and hardware in remarkable shape for a vintage piece. Dual treble hooks are attached via sturdy split rings to the belly and tail.
