Museum Archive: Vintage Glen Evans ​Glen L Evans​ Sunbeam UV, 1/3oz fishing spoon #13497

Measuring exactly 1 1/2" (3.5cm), this 1960s-era spoon showcases the early design philosophy of Glen Evans. The Sunbeam UV, cataloged as Product Code 13497, is finished in a bold green with five prominent yellow and black spot patterns. These markings are specifically designed for low-light conditions, as the UV-reactive paint provides a luminous green silhouette while the dark spots offer a sharp visual contrast. Weighed at 1/3oz (9g), the construction relies on solid metal hardware and a sharp treble hook, hallmarks of its USA origin. Often cited as the design inspiration for later Wob-L-Rite lures, this particular specimen is in exceptional 5/5 condition, maintaining the integrity of its original factory paint. Brass split rings secure the vintage treble hook to the stamped metal body.
