Museum Archive: Vintage Worth Chippewa Steel Spoon, 1/2oz Red / White / Nickel fishing spoon #7934

Stamped with a prominent "MADE IN USA" on its convex side, this mid-century steel spoon reflects the straightforward manufacturing of the Worth company. The Chippewa Steel Spoon, cataloged under Product Code 7934, measures 2 3/4" (7cm) and is finished in a vibrant Red/White/Nickel pattern consisting of diagonal stripes over the metallic base. This particular specimen weighs 1/2oz (14g), providing the necessary mass for casting or trolling. Its teardrop profile is paired with a clean treble hook and a robust split ring at the base. The lure is in 5/5 condition, exhibiting a well-preserved paint job and a bright metallic luster on the reverse. A small attachment hole is located at the tapered top end for line connection.
