Museum Archive: Vintage Glen Evans Loco 3, 3/5oz Nickel / Hologram fishing spoon #9500

Holographic prism tape accents the polished nickel finish of this specimen, a classic design choice that helps catch light in shallow depths. Originally developed by Glen Evans before the design was later picked up by Luhr Jensen, this specific Loco 3 carries the distinctive stamped profile that collectors look for in vintage American spoons. The surface shows excellent preservation, maintaining a clear 5/5 rating with a bright, reflective shine across the metal and tape. Measuring 2 3/4" (7cm) and weighing 3/5oz (17g), its construction is well-suited for both casting and trolling applications. Anglers often find success using this profile when targeting pike in waters up to 3.3ft (1m) deep where there is minimal current. The hardware consists of a sturdy split ring and a clean treble hook, secured at the base of the spoon. A small sticker with product code 9500 is placed on the reverse side of the polished nickel body.
