Stamped clearly on the back of this 1 1/4" (3 cm) spoon is the iconic LITTLE CLEO branding, a hallmark of American craftsmanship from Acme. This specimen, identified by product code 22109, features a bright nickel finish that remains remarkably clean, earning a 5/5 condition rating. Weighing 1/8 oz (3.5 g), the lure is equipped with its original treble hook and secure split rings for both line attachment and hook mounting. The teardrop shape and weight distribution are engineered for casting and light trolling, making it a versatile tool for trout or panfish. Manufactured in the USA, the polished surface reflects light cleanly, while the deeply impressed lettering on the reverse provides a tactile connection to its mid-century design roots.
