Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Little Cleo, 1 1/4oz Nickel / Orange fishing spoon #13316

Nickel plating provides a high-flash surface on this spoon, while a bright orange stripe adds a distinct visual contrast along one side. Weighing 1 1/4 oz (35 g), this Acme Little Cleo is built with the wide-bodied curvature that has made the brand a USA-made staple for generations. The 3 1/4" (8 cm) metal body carries the "LITTLE CLEO" stamp clearly on its reverse side, a hallmark of the manufacturer's identification process. Cataloged as product code 13316, the lure is in 5/5 condition, appearing well-maintained with its metallic luster intact. A strong treble hook is attached via a heavy-duty split ring at the rear, paired with a cleanly punched line tie at the head.
