Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Little Cleo bubbles, 2/5oz fishing spoon #22866

Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length, this Acme Little Cleo displays a distinctive two-tone color palette split longitudinally between a vibrant blue and a clean silver. The most striking feature of this 2/5 oz (11 g) spoon is the embossed bubbles texture, which creates a multifaceted surface designed to catch light from various angles. Manufactured in the USA, this specimen carries the product code 22866 and maintains a high level of preservation. The spoon's body transition from the stamped texture to the smooth, reflective backside is seamless, showing no signs of use or age. A single, sharp treble hook is secured to the tail end with a robust split ring, while the top of the teardrop-shaped lure features a cleanly punched hole for terminal tackle attachment. Rated at 5/5, the finish is bright and intact, reflecting the quality standards Acme became known for in their mid-to-heavy casting spoons. This particular weight class makes it a versatile choice for anglers targeting trout or salmon in medium-sized waters.
