Heddon Lure Galleries
In this Heddon Lure gallery you will see examples made by James Heddon of
Dowagiac Michigan. This, the second of the Heddon Lure Galleries has a few pieces which you wont see
in or on any other Antique fishing lure web site. This Gallery Focuses on Heddon
lures predominately circa 1930s and earlier. Included are some prototypes that came out of the Heddon archives and off the
infamous Heddon Lure Factory Board. We have tried to mix and match in a random order
the Heddon lures shown.
To view what it was like to be in the Heddon Lure Factory come Take a Tour
I will try to
notate extra information for each Heddon lure shown below, and or the color
name, series number. The Heddon Lure pictures below are a shown as a visual
reference, a guide to enjoy. Please note the order of the lure in the gallery bears no
significance on its rarity.
