Stamped directly into the solid copper surface, the "WIGL LURE" text marks this 1/3 oz (9g) specimen as a rare transitional model from the period immediately following Acme’s acquisition of the design. This 1 3/4" (4.5cm) spoon, carrying Product Code 6353, bridges the gap between the original heritage and the modern era of American tackle manufacturing. The copper finish remains bright and clear, displaying a level of care reflected in its 5/5 condition rating. On the reverse, the "LITTLE CLEO" and weight stamps are deeply struck, flanked by an open attachment hole at the head and a strong, bronze-toned treble hook at the tail. The spoon's distinctively wide, contoured body is designed for casting or trolling in a variety of water conditions. Its hardware is original and tight, showcasing the durability expected of a USA-made lure from this era. Small, natural surface marks add to the authenticity of this mid-century fishing tool without detracting from its overall presentation.
