I just came across your comment on the article for the "2007 eBay frog show", I'd like to get your or possibly refer me to someone knowledgeable to identify such lure. Looking forward to hearing from you. Feel free to contact me via phone @ 508-837-5379 ( I can't text) or email @ wordsofwonder75@gmail.<br /><br />Thank you in advance,<br />Mikemichaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01961145483144696063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2293404479643690316.post-34241050166099108002012-03-10T23:53:28.707-05:002012-03-10T23:53:28.707-05:00The James Heddon Frog controversity of 2007 on eba...The James Heddon Frog controversity of 2007 on ebay caught my attention from this google blog.I have been a small time lure maker and fisherman for many decades and have researched the seven[?] frogs in EXTREME depth.I also have handcrafted seven myself.I can understand the reason for the rude accusations to the female seller of the frog from the owners,it's to protect their investment.The hook and tie-on was attached to the super old frog body with more up to date eye hooks,logically by a resorseful person to fish with[ha ha]. If it were to deceive they would have used through the body wires like the origional. Even the pictures of the 2007 ebay frog show the origional wire holes, thats proof in it's self.You don't need a picture of James Heddon holding this lure to prove it's real.The other seven frogs don't have that proof.The eyes, being somewhat different are futher proof that fraud was never attempted as James Heddon had subtle variations.The frog that Harbin traded had many RED flags and I suspect he knew he had been taken,but that's another James Heddon Frog story altogether. So you can see in my logical opinion,the 2007 ebay frog is definately genuine,there are eight frogs and the person who paid around 100 dollars for it got the deal of the century. AS for the lady who sold it,you were victimized by the selfish haters.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
