Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Little Cleo, 1/16oz gold fishing spoon #20329

Weighing exactly 1/16oz (1.8g), this small-profile spoon showcases a high-polish gold finish that catches light from every angle. The reverse side features the classic "LITTLE CLEO" branding clearly stamped into the metal, a hallmark of Acme’s American production. At 1 1/4" (3cm) in length, the spoon is rigged with a vibrant red single hook, a detail often used to trigger strikes by simulating a target point. Both split rings are securely attached, showing no signs of fatigue or oxidation. This specimen is in 5/5 condition, retaining its original luster and smooth edges. The gold plating is uniform across the entire humped body, intended for slow-retrieval casting or light trolling in clear water. Product code 20329 represents a staple in many vintage tackle boxes for its simple yet effective metalwork.
