Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Little Cleo, 3/4oz Nickel / Blue fishing spoon #12508

Stamped into the convex nickel-plated reverse side, the 'LITTLE CLEO 3/4 OZ' mark confirms this as a substantial spoon built for serious casting. The face of the lure is finished in a bold two-tone scheme, pairing a reflective nickel base with a deep blue accent on one side. This specific specimen, bearing product code 12508, measures 2 1/2" (6.5 cm) and carries a weight of 3/4 oz (21 g), making it ideal for cutting through wind and reaching depth. Looking at the hardware, the split ring and treble hook remain in original form, attached to the classic humped body that defines the Acme brand's USA-made heritage. The surfaces are bright and free of any visible scratches or signs of water time, which places this item at a condition rating of 6 (unused). A single line-tie hole sits at the narrow end, ready for a direct knot or a sturdy snap-link.
