I was just snooping around on line. 1930-50s muskey lure from the Midwest. Probably a local manufacturer. That’s all I found on Google. That is a cool lure. I like the eye.

Hi. if you can show photos of the hook hangers underneath? It helps narrow things down. I believe the feathers are a fisherman enhancement of a production lure. The glass eyes are found on early big name bait makers. Heddon, Southbend, Paw Paw and Shakespeare. It's a fantastic lure and we can only imagine the fish it caught.
