Description: Heddon Vintage Sway Back Zara Spook Fishing Lure in Golden Black Muskie Color (9255MG) Exceptional Condition I purchased this bait several years ago. It's in exceptional condition. What a rare find with absolutely no flaws or blemishes in the hard to find Golden Black Muskie color. It has a green and yellow body with white belly, gold scales, black spine and black face, copper colored ribs, yellow/black eyes and red highlight in the upper belly. This "MG" color is listed for a number of Heddon lures starting in 1980 with this one likely made in the 1984 time frame making this lure some 40 years old. This lure has a variation of the "MG" color which has a rib pattern in a more vertical direction and not angled like it was on other lures such as the Magnum Torpedo. This is a very hard color to find. This lure is about 4.25 inches in length. There is one very small mark on the lure which is located at the 7 o'clock position on the right eye. You likely would not notice unless you were looking for this, but I wanted to point this out. You would be purchasing only the fishing lure. There is no original box, packaging or paperwork. The metal Heddon sign and wood lure display stand are not included. This vintage Heddon Zara Spook fishing lure is a must-have for any collector or angler looking for a classic addition to their tackle box or collection. Crafted from durable plastic material, this lure is suitable for use in both freshwater and saltwater environments, making it a versatile option for all types of fishing. Featuring the iconic Zara Spook design from the original production, this lure is a true original and is sure to catch the eye of any fish species. Whether you're a collector or an avid fisherman, this vintage crankbait is a great choice for any angler looking to add a touch of history to their fishing experience. A word about how I ship: I'm very particular about how I ship fishing lures. I ship fishing lures like I'm the one who will be receiving them! The body is protected from the hooks by placing plastic covers over the hooks. The lure is then placed in a small 6"x2"x2" cardboard box and well protected with bubble wrap and tissue. This small box will then be placed in a larger shipping box and protected with packing peanuts. All the boxes that I use are new boxes (no recycled cheap flimsy boxes) and I use the "box-lock" method of taping to insure that the lure safely arrives to its new home. Like most collectors of fishing lures, I hate to see a poorly packed fishing lure especially when it's as nice as this one!
