A heavy 1 oz (28 g) frame makes this gold spoon a formidable choice for reaching deeper water columns. Measuring 4 1/4" (11 cm), the polished surface of this Big Doctor 285 is stamped with the manufacturer's hallmark from Prescott, Wisconsin. Near the line tie at the narrow end, three bold red dots provide a sharp visual contrast against the mirror-like gold finish. This specific rarity, identified by product code 22892, remains in 5/5 condition, showing the high quality of American metalwork from the mid-20th century. The wide tail section holds a sturdy treble hook, anchored to withstand the strike of large predatory fish during heavy casting or trolling sessions. Genuine Prescott Spinner Co. engravings are deep and legible, confirming its origin and authenticity for any serious vintage collection.
