Stamped clearly into the metal on the concave side, the weight of 2/5 oz (11g) identifies this Acme Little Cleo as a versatile mid-sized casting spoon. This particular specimen, bearing product code 17217, features a bright Nickel finish that provides a high-flash profile for various light conditions. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length, the spoon's distinct humped shape is a hallmark of American tackle design, manufactured in the USA. The hardware consists of a robust treble hook attached by a stainless split ring, with another split ring at the line-tie end for secure rigging. The condition is a solid 5/5, showing a mirror-like surface on both the convex and concave faces, with the "LITTLE CLEO" and weight stamps remaining sharp and legible. The treble hook maintains its original finish with no signs of wear or dullness on the points.
