Well, hello all. Sorry it's been a bit but just had to let you know something. There are some heavy Heddon bangers online that will be closing out today on ebay. These are very top dollar lures and highly collectible. Problem is, they are a little out of my price range but if you are collecting to value, ebay has some rocking little Heddon lures that are closing out today.
Up first is: 2207: Heddon 900 Swimming Minnow Lure
This is a model 2207 Heddon 900 Swimming Minnow. Finished in white body with red spots, black back stripe and red hand painted gill marks. Strong Ex- due to varnish flaking along the back, otherwise very bright and shiny. Includes an unmarked white border down bass box, c1912, about VG+ condition with wear and staining. Oustanding. Current bid is $625.00 but this one I'd expect will go much higher.
Next is: 2208: Heddon Heavy Casting Minnow Lure in Box
Heddon 176 Heavy Casting Minnow. Finished in green back rainbow with red hand painted gill marks, large glass eyes (1 cracked), unmarked props and oversized, heavy duty cup and screw eye hardware. About VG+ with a chip to wood under the tail and flaking to primer along one edge. Complete package includes the rarely seen original tall wood slide top box with writing on all four sides and top, about VG+ due to two broken rails.
There are about 12 others that are in this category out on ebay that are ending today. These are awesome lures to add to any collection. Good luck!
