Here are my 3 lures from Igor ,there's a bit of a Molller influence there in 2 of the lures .I have noticed the coloured dots on the side are in reverse to Eric's lures.

I use to buy loads of them back in the mid 1970's at a tackle shop in innisfail.
Great barra lures.

...Now your asking...Im pretty sure they went for $4.95 for the bigger ones and $3.95 for the smaller.The shop was called Sam Vecchio's sports store and i remember i bought my first rod and reel there.Totally unbalanced,huge shakespeare egg beeter,a 6 foot solid f.glass rod loaded with 30LB mono ...I use to buy guns and ammo there as well.That little tackle place is still trading now but obviously not them lures..
I use to fish every weekend (saturday and sunday mornings in the johnstone river) and man did i get some barra on them and man did i lose a lot of lures.. PS....Tully is 50km south of Innisfail..

You could still buy them in 1991, as I purchased a few on my way through to Cairns. Still have three or four in various sizes. From memory still paid about the same as Timber King, I popped into that shop on my way home last year, unfortunately no longer any handcrafted lures, just mass produced plastic, that's progress .
