Vintage Striker Mean Machine lure, new old stock fishing accessory, original packaging

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This vintage Striker brand fishing lure comes in its original, unopened packaging, attesting to its new old stock (deadstock) condition. The packaging features a yellow card with typical 80s-90s graphics, with the black "STRIKER" logo clearly visible at the top. Just below, a yellow sticker bears the inscription "MEAN MACHINE" in black letters, accompanied by a small decorative red feather attached to the card, a distinctive detail of this range.

The lure itself, visible through the transparent plastic, has an elongated, tapered shape, reminiscent of aquatic prey. Its main color is a slightly translucent pale green, enhanced by a stylized white and black eye, placed towards the front to reinforce its attractiveness to fish. Texture and relief details are visible under the packaging, suggesting a smooth finish with some molded striations or ribs on the surface.

On the card, you can also see the mention "WILLIAMSON LURES" on the left, as well as a handwritten reference "M13" and the indication "QUALITY COLOUR 4" on the right. The entire packaging is period-specific, with a round perforation at the top for shelf display, typical of old fishing tackle sold in specialized stores.

The item is strictly what is visible in the photo: a Striker Mean Machine lure, green in color, with a red feather, in its original sealed packaging. No additional accessories are visible.

This type of lure, often also called "fishing accessory" or "artificial bait", is designed for sport fishing, suitable for classic fishing rods. Its retro aesthetic and deadstock presentation make it a particularly interesting piece for vintage fishing enthusiasts or for use in the field.

Condition

Used item, never opened, sold as is in its original sealed packaging. The packaging shows some minor storage marks, with no opening or visible alteration of the contents.

Did you know? The "Mean Machine" model from Striker by Williamson Lures was designed to imitate the natural movements of marine prey and thus increase the effectiveness of sport fishing. The Williamson brand has distinguished itself with its innovative lures since the 80s, used in both fresh and salt water to target a wide variety of species.
