Description
From J.D. Hosmer of Dearborn, Michigan, perhaps the most desirable and sought after of all frog baits, measuring 5 1/2" overall in the relaxed position, with good glass eyes and finished in green frog spot with white belly and hand painted red accents. Although possible unfished the condition is strong VG+ due to common flakes/rubs, light wear and the white a bit age darkened. In much better condition than most, a rare Michigan classic.
