Nice addition to your collection Mick.

Tim, do you think that might apply to all in that style, or just that specific lure? (different bib?)






Cheers, Tony

For the love of Fishing Lures.

Well if it is to be a Munt/Dempster hybrid, that will.do me fine Tim.
Don't know about the signature, it is scratched in and might just be scratches that resemble letters. If it is an actual signature then it would be something like Ro/99. It is quite a thick bib Richard,much thicker than a standard Dempster bib, the cutting process makes it look like a double thickness though.

This is a Munt 'MM' or 'Moller Minnow' purchased from Peter Fooks, LureShop, Cooktown, around 1988.
Comparison size/shape for your lure Mick, not painted by George however.
