Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Fiord Spoon Jr Lightning (50s), 1/8oz nickel/blue fishing spoon #20564

A striking combination of nickel and blue finishes marks this vintage Acme Fiord Spoon Jr Lightning from the 1950s. Weighing in at 1/8oz (3.4g), the spoon's metal body features the iconic lightning bolt stamp on the back, a clear sign of its American heritage and early Acme craftsmanship. This 1 1/2" (3.5cm) specimen carries the product code 20564 and serves as a fine example of a lure no longer in production. Its hardware includes a sturdy treble hook attached by a split ring, suitable for casting or jigging techniques. The finish remains bright with minor, natural wear from its decades of storage, resulting in a 4/5 condition rating. The reverse side is clearly stamped with the 'Fiord Spoon Jr' name and the lightning emblem, confirming its authenticity as a mid-century USA-made original.
