Barney,sorry I missed this post I believe it to be PRE 1990 as the Viper logo dosent exist as yet on this one and date wasen't put on them , well kept lure by the looks , hope this helps.Also has the old original oval split rings so it could be around 1986/88 era.Also no Viper tongue.

Thanks Shane. Did you sell any lures into NSW tackle shops before 1988?
Armidale? Inverell ? Tenterfield tackle shops? |
