I found these baits the other day cleaning out a woodshed. The were laying on a shelf and covered in what appeared to be chicken guano. Got them home and cleaned them up and recieved a nice suprise. The Wee-Dee is 100% on the body but the hooks are rusty, the Pikie is 80% on the body paint, but hooks are like new. The Pikie is wood and is stamped on the bill 9-7-20, am wondering if that is the manufacture date, if anyone knows please inform. I am very ignorant about old lures, both of these are wood, and I think the Wee-Dee is very collectable. Any information would be appreciated

Those baits are certainly worth checking out. I sold a Pike in about the same condition a few weeks ago for $125 and if it were in an original box the price would have doubled. Red head is a common color and that might reduce the price a little but still worth looking into. The WeeDee I have no clue on the price but do a little research and you might get a big suprise. Just Google Antique Fishing lures and you should have enough information to last for weeks.

  What a find ...

Let me know what you want for them.

That wee-dee is worth something.Ain't too many of them out there.

Looks like you found a nice set of collectible lures!

Thinking they are plastic as the letters on the back are raised.  Dont see how a manufacturing process would result in raised letters on wooden baits.

Great find
