Description: This is an original 1934 Heddon Lucky 13 lure with no box. In listing pictures included is 1934 catalog. It could be earlier but this is close dating and description. I will include excerpt from antique identification of the 2500 series lucky 13 to which this applies below. In that description it shows 3 7/8” length but this lure is 4” which matches description in the ‘34 catalog. This lure is definitely the “long lip” and “no eye” model described in the antique description excerpt below. For the age it is in good used condition. I have offered many photos for you to examine. Note: there is only one screw ahead of the hook attachments underside which also date the lure. Later lucky 13 lures display shorter lip and two screws at each hook attachment. Actual condition is indicated in photos. The model number maybe 2509PRH. It is a 2500 series with red head (RH) for sure. A rare opportunity awaits. You will get exact item in photos. This lure is from my father’s collection and I will be offering other items from this collection in the future so save me as a seller if interested. Multiple purchases can be packaged together and discounted. Specifications of the Lucky 13 (credit to old fishing lure.com): The Heddon Lucky 13 series 2500 is approximately 3 7/8" in length. The lure due to its longevity was offered in quite a few configurations. First, the lure was offered in Cup Rig Hardware, with no Eyes and a elongated lower lip the lure is given the nick name "No Eye, Long Lip" by collectors. The Lucky 13 soon after moved with the rest of the Heddon lure line up to the L-Rig Hardware, and the elongated lower lip was shortened thought to give a better strength to the hook harness. The lure was offered in both regular and and heavy duty L Rig, mostly used for salmon and salt water fishing. The lure was offered in Toilet Seat (Both up turned and Regular), and Two piece Flap rig with and without eyes. The lure then was offered in a Surface rig hardware with tack eyes, and finally onto a plastic lure with painted eyes. There is also a Musky version of the lure that is larger and made with and without glass eyes, in a spook body. The lucky 13 was offered in all the boxes as well, from its initial down bass box, to the up bass box, into the HR Brush box and finally onto the Banner box. Shipping to confirmed address.
