A total weight of 3/16oz (5.5g) defines this Rockland Super Rocky, a vintage American lure dating back to the 1940s. Identified by Product Code 1568, the 2 1/4" (6cm) body features a two-piece jointed construction intended for casting. The color scheme is a distinct combination of black, brown, and yellow, with a dark metallic top and horizontal black stripes over a silver-scaled yellow flank. A prominent metal diving lip is mounted to the head section with a small screw, sitting just below the hand-painted yellow eyes with black pupils. This particular specimen is in 4/5 condition, maintaining a clean finish with minor indications of its long history. Double treble hooks are mounted via screw-eyes, characteristic of the hardware used during its period of manufacture.
