Stamped clearly into the brass-toned reverse, the 1/4 oz (7 g) weight designation identifies this Acme Little Cleo as a versatile mid-sized spoon for casting or trolling. The front face features a vibrant green upper section that transitions smoothly into a reflective gold finish, punctuated by distinctive black vertical bars and dots along the sides. Under product code 18946, this specimen showcases the iconic wide-bodied design that has remained a tackle box staple for decades. The hardware includes a sturdy split ring connecting a sharp, dark-finished treble hook to the tail. Measuring approximately 1.75 inches (4.4 cm) in length, the spoon's metal body remains bright and well-preserved. This particular lure is in 5/5 condition, showing exceptional clarity in its paint job and minimal signs of age on the metallic surfaces. The "LITTLE CLEO ®" mark remains crisp and legible on the polished gold-colored underside.
