Museum Archive: Vintage Heddon King Stanley, 3/4oz Gold/red fishing spoon #24228

Polished gold finishes on the body and dual spinner blades define the aesthetic of this 3/4oz (21g) rarity. Identified by product code 24228, the Heddon King Stanley features a 2 3/4" (7cm) construction that utilizes a wire leader frame to position a gold blade ahead of the main body. An additional small blade is mounted to the side of the metallic form, enhancing its visual profile. The single hook is dressed with vibrant red feathers, which remain full and securely tied. Rated at a condition of 5/5, the metal surfaces are notably bright and free of wear, reflecting the care taken in preserving such a specialized item. The rigid wire frame and distinct hardware connections demonstrate the structural integrity typical of Heddon's mid-century manufacturing.
