Museum Archive: Hopkins s1, 1/2oz Hammered Nickel fishing spoon #4319

Weighing in at 1/2 oz (14 g), this classic slab lure features the signature hammered nickel finish that has defined the brand's legacy for decades. This specific specimen, identified by product code 4319, remains in unused condition, still attached to its original vintage display card from the Norfolk, Virginia, workshop. Measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm), the body is forged from solid stainless steel, a choice of material specifically selected by the manufacturer to prevent rusting and peeling over time. The hardware includes a treble hook dressed with a white bucktail trailer, designed to provide a distinct profile when utilized for casting, jigging, or trolling. The card graphics emphasize its versatility for all game fish, while the metal's textured surface is intended to catch and reflect light from various angles. Every stamp on the metal face remains crisp and clear, showcasing the classic manufacturing standards of the Hopkins Fishing Lures Co. era.
