Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Little Cleo Glow, 3/4oz White / Orange / Nickel fishing spoon #15173

Splitting the front face into two distinct halves, the white and orange finish on this Acme Little Cleo provides a high-contrast visual that changes character entirely in low-light environments. Weighing 3/4 oz (21 g) and measuring 2 1/2" (6.5 cm), this model 15173 spoon is a heavy-duty casting tool designed for deeper water or dark conditions. The specialized white paint is highly reactive to light, glowing a bright green as seen in the dark-frame imagery, while the orange section remains a solid matte. A nickel-plated reverse side offers traditional flash, and the heavy split ring connects to a robust treble hook, consistent with its USA-made heritage. This specimen is in 5/5 condition, showing no signs of use, with the paint and glow-charging properties remaining fully intact.
