Delphin/Delfin lures is always marked with an eagle and  H under. below that there is a Fish (Dolphin) They are made with many difrent markings over the years, and they indikate how old the lure is. The last lures was made in 2004 when the factory closed. The first from left is quit old. about 1920 to 1945/50 Number 4 is the latest marking

Hello p.j.

I found your post while trying to research a Delfin spoon I have.

It came with various lures, dating from very early 1900s to quite modern, but seems one of the older ones?

It is 9cm, thin metal with silver plate. 

Any help with name and rough date would be much appreciated! Smile

Hi John
That is a nice Delfin salmon Harling Spoon you got there.
Arnulf Jørginus Hoff a Goldsmith from Norway started the Delfin Spoon factery in 1904,but made his first Spoon already in 1886 (Hoff Spoon)
There is hundreds off different Delfin models, and yours I would say are pre WW2
It is in the 1934 katalog with number 160S
If you have more questions, just ask, and I will try to give an answer 

   Cheers Per
