Special Notes:
P&K (Pachner & Koller, Inc.) was founded around 1934. The company name initially was Pachner & Koehler, then changed to Pachner & Koller, and in 1938, it became "P&K Incorporated." Since Tenite (plastic) lures like "Bright Eyes" appeared in P&K's catalogs between 1943 and 1947, this lure is believed to have been manufactured in the mid-1940s. P&K went bankrupt and was liquidated in 1966, and its lure division's activities also slowed down around that time.
