Museum Archive: Vintage Weller Gypsy King 1, 3/5oz Green / White / Nickel fishing spoon #11745

Measuring 2 3/4" (7cm) in length, this classic spoon features a forest green finish accented by a prominent white wavy stripe. Identified by product code 11745, the Gypsy King 1 represents a sturdy era of American lure manufacturing by Weller. The front side is detailed with a simple yellow painted eye near the nose, while the back is finished in polished nickel and bears the "Gypsy King" stamp into the metal. At 3/5oz (17g), the weight is well-suited for targeting a variety of freshwater species through casting or trolling. The original treble hook is held by a secure split ring, and the overall 5/5 condition shows the preservation of the enamel and nickel plating. Manufacturing details confirm this specimen originated in the USA.
