Box: 6 - 3/4” x 5” x 1 - 1/4”. The holy grail of three-pack presentation kits, this set has everything going for it: from the red velvet lined compartments to the beautiful Black Bass graphic on the lid underside to the rare aluminum finish on three very rare and early Heddon baits. All three baits are in the rare aluminum finish, and all three have brass hardware with gold-washed cups. The two-hook Slopenose / Dowagiac Perfect Surface Casting Bait has a hand-painted red collar held in place by a single pin. The four-Hook Slopenose has the hand-painted red friction fit collar. The Underwater Expert has the internal belly weight and a nice sweeping blade prop. All three baits grade around Excellent Minus and the box is solid on all corners. This exact set is shown in The Heddon Legacy on pages 23 and 64. Without question one of the most important vintage fishing pieces ever to come to auction.

Item Dimensions: Box: 6 - 3/4" x 5" x 1 - 1/4".
