Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Fiord Spoon, 1/4oz nickel/orange fishing spoon #18824

Nickel plating covers the majority of this vintage specimen, sharply contrasted by a bold orange stripe along one edge. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) and weighing 1/4 oz (7 g), this Acme Fiord Spoon features the manufacturer's name and model stamped clearly into the concave metal body. This specific item, identified by product code 18824, represents a discontinued piece of American fishing history. The construction is centered around a teardrop profile intended for long-distance casting and effective jigging depths. Both the nickel finish and the painted accent are well-preserved, and the original split rings and treble hook remain intact, warranting a 5/5 condition rating. Its slender, aerodynamic shape was specifically developed by Acme to reach fish holding in deeper water columns where other spoons might struggle.
