Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Thunderbolt, 1/8oz Trout fishing spoon #7142

Polished silver plating on the reverse side defines this 1/8oz (3.5g) Acme Thunderbolt, showcasing a crisp manufacturer stamp and model name. Measuring 1 1/4" (3cm) in length, the specimen features a 'Trout' pattern with a vertical gradient that transitions from a vibrant pink at the line-tie end into a sky blue and finally a pale white toward the hook. Seven distinct black spots are distributed across the pink and blue sections to enhance its visual profile. Cataloged as product code 7142, this lure is in 5/5 condition, retaining its original bronze-finished treble hook and split ring hardware. Manufactured in the USA, the spoon's solid metal construction and stamped weight reflect the quality standards of traditional American tackle.
