Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Little Cleo bubbles , 1/3oz fishing spoon #23076

Featuring a distinctive "bubbles" or hammered finish, this spoon captures light across its split green and silver palette. This 1/3oz (9g) Acme Little Cleo, identified by product code 23076, measures 1 3/4" (4.5cm) and showcases the classic wide-bodied teardrop shape that has made the brand a staple in American tackle boxes. Stamped in the USA, the lure's surface is divided between a metallic emerald green and a polished silver, both textured with deep, scale-like circular indentations. The concave reverse side is finished in a clean, high-reflectivity silver. In terms of hardware, it is equipped with a sturdy split ring and its original bronze-finished treble hook. This specimen is in 4/5 condition, maintaining a vibrant luster on its plated surfaces and crisp edges on its heavy brass construction. This weight class is particularly effective for casting toward trout or bass when you need a compact profile that still provides enough mass for distance.
