Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Phoebe, 3/16oz Copper fishing spoon #14773

Stamped with intricate scales across its copper surface, the lure’s profile is instantly recognizable to any seasoned angler. Weighing 3/16 oz (5.5 g), this Acme Phoebe features a curved body profile designed to create a three-dimensional illusion while moving through the water column. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm), the metal body is clearly marked on the reverse with the Phoebe name, a testament to its USA-made heritage. This specimen is in remarkable condition, warranting a 5/5 rating for its clean finish and well-maintained hardware. Labeled with product code 14773, it was engineered for a wide range of presentation depths and retrieves, from fast-paced casting to slower, steady swimming. The rear is fitted with a sharp treble hook connected by a durable split ring.
