The Charmer Minnow. Springfield, Missouri / c. 1910
The Charmer Minnow Company received its first patent for these distinctive lures in 1910, in Springfield, Missouri. A handful of rarer variations also exist, though they are extremely hard to find. Among them are the Musky-sized Charmer and the Half-Charmer.
Built with cedar bodies and German silver hardware, these lures are prized by many early antique lure collectors. The unusual "Barber Pole" paint schemes have likely "charmed" more collectors than they ever did fish. They rank among my personal favorite old lures by far.
