any value on this? i will post a pic later. on the metal lip is stamped "cooper lures stamford ct."

Dre, I don't think they're very rare. I have a few in my basement, also. They swim beautifully, but I'm afraid of losing one, so rarely toss them.

george. i am bringing it to cutty to fish. especially if, as you say, they are not that rare. kind of like a tribute to the old guard. who knows. maybe i'll land a fish of a lifetime. some story that would make.

Andre. I have some from early seventies. Like new. I sold some a couple weeks ago. Jointed and straights. Thin body profile61/2" They hang from the board of fame. Repros no problem duplicating. If you guys want, over the winter I can spin some up. See ya at the meeting.
