Heddon Fishing Lures (Wood, Glass Eyes)

What drives value

Glass eyes + wood body = old; plastic and painted eyes came later
Original marked box can triple the price of the same lure
Paint condition graded ruthlessly: chips at the "chin" hit hardest
Rare colors and big musky sizes (a Wisconsin specialty) bring collectors out
