Stamped into the polished nickel reverse side, the "DAZZLER 2" engraving identifies this discontinued Acme spoon as a piece of American tackle history. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) and weighing 1/4 oz (7 g), the lure displays a gradient finish on its face that shifts from a rich blue at the narrow end to a luminous White Pearl at the wide, rounded head. This specimen, listed under product code 5172, is unused and maintains a condition rating of 6, showing no signs of handling on its hardware or finish. It was designed for both casting and trolling, often utilized by anglers working shallow zones of 3.3 ft (1 m) or less when pike are less active and current is absent. The construction features a sharp treble hook attached to the narrow tail via a split ring, while a single line-tie hole is positioned at the widest point of the nickel-plated body.
