Early Expert Minnow from Woods of Alliance, OH., measuring 3 1/2" in length, finished in brown back gold body with red hand painted gill marks, yellow glass eyes, bow tie style perforated spinners, type 1 removable treble hooks, and THE "EXPERT" boldly stamped along the left side. This 1903 vintage Expert shows light wear, typically seen on most Expert minnows of this era. As an extra bonus, we've left the 2 pieces of monofilament fishing line tied to the line tieof this early minnow, meaning it was fished, quite possibly, recently!
