Museum Archive: Vintage Heddon King Stanley, 3/4oz nickel/red fishing spoon #19938

Stamped clearly into the metal of the main body, the Heddon King Stanley branding identifies a piece of tackle designed for durability and visibility. Weighing 3/4 oz (21 g) with a length of 2 3/4" (7 cm), this nickel/red lure utilizes a distinctive hybrid configuration. A large, polished spoon-shaped body is paired with a secondary spinner blade mounted on a sturdy wire frame. The single hook is dressed with a tuft of red feathers, adding a sharp contrast to the high-shine nickel finish. Rated at a 4/5 condition, the reflective surfaces are well-preserved, and the hardware—associated with Product Code 19938—reflects the quality of Heddon's USA production. The secondary blade is connected via a small swivel to allow for independent rotation relative to the primary spoon.
