Gold plating covers the entire 1 1/2" (3.5 cm) body of this vintage spoon, a hallmark of Acme’s classic American-made hardware. Stamped clearly with the 'FIORD JR' identifier on the inner curve, this lure reflects a time when metal spoons were the go-to for light-tackle anglers. The 1/8 oz (3.4 g) weight allows for precise casting or controlled jigging in both still and moving water. A bronze-finished treble hook is attached to the rear with a robust gold-tone split ring, maintaining the piece's structural integrity. This specific item (Product Code: 14883) is rated a 5/5 for condition, showing a remarkably clean and preserved finish that has avoided common wear seen on lures of this age. While no longer produced, the craftsmanship remains evident in the smooth taper of the teardrop profile and the clean drill of the line attachment point. This model was originally engineered in the USA for versatility.
