4 - 1/2” Length. Dating to 1912 and coming in its oversized Downleaping Bass box, this chunky bait grades Excellent Minus. A few age lines and small varnish flakes and a tiny bit of hook oxidation. Left side hook has a split loop and could be a replacement, which can easily be restored. Nice, clear glass eyes and marked props. Four belly weights retaining all paint aside for some slight outlining. Extremely rare oversized white border / red double pinstripe box dates to 1912 only. Although there are traces of the model number stamp on both ends, only “70?” can be legibly read on one end.
Condition: (Excellent-)
Item Dimensions: 4 - 1/2" Length.
