What I beleave you have is a Heddon Crazy Crawler mouse #2120. The reason I say "beleave" is Heddon made many types of crazy crawlers.
The one you have has the old style surface hardware, the one piece tail.
It also has zink eye's.
Heddon started make crazy crawlers in 1940"s.
It's a great lure. I have 17 crazy crawlers in my collection.
Please check out my collection.
