Heddon #1500 Dummy Double in Strawberry Spotted
The last 0 in #1500 indicates the color Spotted or White, Red & Green Spots, commonly known as Strawberry possibly because there were a few identifiable spotted patterns and colors. This one is categorized with several others as Spotted.
This Dummy Double with hand-painted gills, glass eyes, marked props and special raised, flattened L-rig hardware, and 3 special Dummy Double hooks is a beautiful, very early example of one of Heddon’s most collectible lures. It weighs 1 ounce on the nose.
The close-up photo below shows how the hook hanger changes enabled these unusual flat hooks to hang beautifully.
