Item: 3.1

Heddon 402 Bucktail Surface Minnow, yellow with sienna skullcap.  c. 1908, cup rig hardware.  Lure is in excellent plus condition.   Look at the photos of this mint lure. 

This intro white box with double blue line border is extremely rare.  In excellent minus condition.  End is marked 402.  It's all about the box because of the rarity.  Very few of these still exist.

Item: 3.3

Heddon 51,  Artistic Minnow, gold prop and hardware, original hackle, aluminum color, excellent condition. 

Intro box is marked 51, excellent condition, contains a mint buoy, and excellent paperwork, a complete perfect package just like it left the factory. 

Item: 3.4

Heddon '0', cup rig, name on prop, yellow with red and green decorations, excellent condition.  Cup rigging is more rare in this small lure and to find one in this condition is very difficult because most you see have varnish or paint loss on the edges.  This one does not.

Box is the early down leaping bass version and consistent with this lure, correctly marked '0'., excellent minus condition.  With correct paper.

Item: 3.5

Heddon 3009D, 'Spindiver', deluxe finish greenscale, L-rig, excellent condition.  Color and pattern wraps all the way around...the deluxe version.   Look at the tail edges, no varnish loss
