scott jedd	Bob thanks for posting this really cool Rotary Head bait. Terry Oxley is "The Man" when it comes to Rotary lures, and his book is an outstanding resource. I went through his book and could not find any examples matching the unique forward fixed prop and metal strap collar hardware on your lure. I don't think your example is related to Shakespeare, but this was a very popular and much imitated style in the early 1900s and could be either a nice piece of folk art or made by a small volume kitchen table maker. Chance Dunlap does a really nice blog on folk art lures, you might want to scroll through his site as well. Good luck with it, Scott
