This lure and box combo was originally purchased from Lang's November 2007 Auction and was described as follows: "Rare Woods Ultra Casting Minnow Lure in Box.

Woods Expert minnow is finished in solid aluminum with bright red hand-painted gill marks. Other than paint off the belly weight, this early minnow rigged with no-hole bow-tie props and non-detachable hooks is solid excellent. Wood slide top box is also in super condition, featuring a top paper label as well as a side label from an Austin, TX store. An exceptional combination". We couldn't have described this rare item any better ourselves. Don't miss this opportunity to purchase a truly historical and important angling artifact, one of museum-grade quality that ties several turn-of-the-century companies together.
