Neat Old Fishing Lures

I don't no much about old lures , I thought they looked good enough to get . I paid $5.00 for the pair.
The buck tails are a little rough .

There is another kind that is kinda similar called chitaquia minnows, they can go for $1000's! I would have picked up those two in a heart beat!

Thanks Isabella & Vpnavy - It was an unadvertised yard sale just down the road from us . The guy who is about 70 ish said it was his fathers stuff . There were several old tackle boxes Full of stuff . I'm researching old lures tonight , I'm heading down there first thing in the morning .

Nice lures. I can never find any real old lures down here. The guy was about 70ish and he said they belonged to hid dad? I'd of bought the whole lot of tackle boxes (hint-hint). I bet there are some treasures in there. Lets see what this one ends up selling for- Early Shakespeare Worden Bucktail Spinner in Excellent Condition | eBay. Condition looks similar to yours.

Or be there when the sun comes up tommorrow, if it isn't too late already. Something like that wouldn't last an hour around here.

Nice lures!
You planning to sell them?

Excellent find! Been looking for old lures for several years at garage sales and haven't found any yet.

Love old lures but don't know much about them. Looks like you found some nice ones.

 

[leadnbrass]

I believe they are wordens' and quite old.

I would think a solid $125-$150 each.

Triple the above if you can find the boxes.

Very nice indeed.

I haven't seen anything like these, but I don't usually look for much more than hand planes and jewelry.... I like their look and what some will pay for them! Great find.

Nice "treasures" you found there, great deal struck! Congrats.
Go get the rest, I wish you that it's still there when you go back.

I've done my share of losing flea-market bargains by not buying cool looking stuff on-sight and going back later after research to get it and finding it;s long gone :-(

I put one of them on ebay - it sells tomorrow
