SEASONAL RESPITE CARE
If you are considering ordering my lures please be aware. I am an artist and work on my time. In the fall and winter of the year (November 15th to May 15th) I go into solitary retreat to renew my psyche. During this time Heirloom Lures will be unable to fill online orders. I will fill all orders placed before November 15th. In the spring , May 15th , I will renew filling online orders.
Thank you for your understanding.

THE DILLINGER
In 1930 William F Egar began making fish lures out of his home in Bartow, Florida. One of these lures he called The Florida Special, it had paint stripes on it's sides and dot's around the eye's. The locals called this lure " The Dillinger " because it reminded them of the stripes on John Dillinger's (the gangster ) prison uniform and it killed the fish ! Egar adopted the name for a series of his lures which as his 1937 patent applies to the design of, " An artificial lure characterized by the elliptical arrangement of dot's around the eyes in combination with bands of color applied to the body ". Yes, the patent was for the paint pattern.
All lures come in an attractive wood presentation box with a written history and a copy of the original patent drawing.
