Moonlight Jtd Pikaroon “Special” finished in an uncataloged color, with “cupped” joints, solid black with thin yellow eye shadow (VG). Special Order colors such as this are extremely rare on the Jointed Pikaroon. Also, one glass eye is larger than the other.

From the Dr. Gregory L. Swartz Collection. 

Dr. Swartz, the author of the newly published and definitive reference book on Moonlight and Silver Creek lures: “The Moonlight Bait Company: An Illustrated Collector's Guide & History", discovered distant family ties to the founders and developers of the company. A natural attraction to their history led to this impressive assemblage, featuring many rare boxed examples and unique items from the inception of the Moonlight Bait Co.
