One of the amazing things about living in America is freedom of choice, dogfish. I know some of my requests may be tedious. I am trying to set this up for the future so folks doing a database search can find specific information on what they want, quickly.
You can help if you feel so inclined. I always welcome your participation, satiric or otherwise.
Found some today, vintage but not antique...still a nice bunch to see.....
Creek Chub Pikie, one of the most common you will find out there....
Even with its glass eyes and fine features, at most this plug runs from $5-15 on the market because so many of them were made...
Creek Chub Jointed Pikie....About as common as the regular pikie, therefore not as valuable as some of the rarer styles....still a nice plug to look at....
I'm not a collector.
**If looking to collect these and others like them, the condition of the box and any promo materials inside is key to the ranges in value.
** A little history of the Bomber Bait Company...
I believe it was started in 1946 by Ike Walker, John W Parker, and CS Tuberville. They quickly became successful as they filled a need for lures, initially for freshwater, that few were addressing.
They had many different varieties tooled and built out of their factory in Gainesville, Tx.
I believe they were eventally acquired by Pradco, which now has several brands under that umbrella and has attempted to resurrect some of the old time favorites.
