    Old Arbogast Mud Bug Lure With Evan Williams advertisement on the back of them

    I have some old mud bugs with Evan Williams advertisement on the back of them.
    I have about 5 of these still in box.
    I would say my dad picked these up at the boat show in the early 70's.

    Was just wondering what they might be worth?

    Early Times sponsored Kevin Wirth during the 80's, early 90's, probably from that time period.

    Values pretty tough on an advertising bait. They normally don't bring a ton, but technically every color collector has to have one in my opinion. I'll say $12 or so, but that's a ballpark for sure.

    The 5/8 is a good size for selling right now but I doubt the advertisement is going to add much to the price. But you never know there may be some collector out there that needs that item whether it be an Arbogast collector or a Kevin Wirth fan. Just my opinion.

    I was thinking it was like a picture logo on the back for some reason. I'd say value around $8

    Yep, they are very cool. If I collected mudbugs I'd be trying to get one from you.
