Museum Archive: Vintage Bill Norman Vintage Little Scooper , 1/4oz silver fishing lure #20839

Silver cross-hatched scales across the body distinguish this early Bill Norman Vintage Little Scooper, identified by product code 20839. Weighing 1/4 oz (7 g) with a length of 2" (5 cm), this floating rarity showcases the craftsmanship that helped establish the Norman brand in the USA. A translucent amber diving lip allows the lure to reach depths up to 8 ft (2.4 m) when utilized for casting or trolling. The silver finish remains distinct, complemented by a darkened back and yellow-painted eyes. For collectors, the condition is rated 5/5, showing the original treble hooks still attached and very slight evidence of its age.
