    Old rapalas

    I recently picked up a few older Rapala minnows. They are all silver and in excellent condition, in the older blue boxes with a clear plastic lid. Sorry, I can't post any pics right now, I just wondered if there is any collector interest in these.
    Thanks!

    Tom...I don't think they are. Someone else might have a different idea, but I have never seen any Rapala minnow worth much. Too many of them were made and many of them are still very easily found, no matter how old they are. These are my ideas based on what I have seen as I have bought and sold 100's of them. And I suspect the Silver ones are the most plentiful. Sorry...Eddie

    Thanks, Ed! I kinda figured they wouldn't be worth much. I'll just add them to the collection since they are in such good condition, with the boxes and paper inserts.
    Like I need more "man cave" decorations.

    Look on the bill. Original made in Finland embossed to be worth anything. Ireland embossed pretty much worthless. Most are made in Estonia now and worth nothing
