EARLIEST F.C. WOODS EXPERT MINNOW IN BOX
While the complete history of the Expert Minnows is still somewhat muddy, this example appears to date to F.C. Woods first advertisement in January of 1902. Notable features include perfect yellow glass eyes, non-perforated Wizard-style props, non-removable hooks, ring bearings, a soldered line tie, 3 crude sets of HPGM, and two belly weights. Condition is about Excellent Minus on this amazing Minnow. The box is equally well-preserved, with 100% of the side label intact. An historically important combo. 3 - 3/8" L. Dimensions: Box: 5 - 1/2" x 2" x 1 - 1/2".
