Museum Archive: Vintage Lucky Strike Banshee wobbler, 1/2oz Gold fishing spoon #7940

Gold plating covers the teardrop profile of this 2" (5 cm) Canadian-made lure, reflecting light just as a traditional spoon should. Weighing 1/2 oz (14 g), the Banshee wobbler is a classic piece of hardware from the Lucky Strike catalog, identified by product code 7940. The concave interior of the metal body features a clear "BANSHEE" stamp, a hallmark of this specific model's production history. In its current 4/5 condition, the gold finish displays a gentle softening of its original brilliance while maintaining a clean, well-preserved surface. A standard treble hook is attached to the wider tail section via a split ring, while the narrow head features a single drilled hole for the line tie. The solid metal construction is designed for both casting and trolling applications.
