Stamped clearly into the metal surface is the "JOHNSON'S SPRITE" branding alongside the "MADE IN USA" mark, hallmarks of this classic American spoon. Weighing 1/3oz (10g) with a length of 2" (5cm), the lure provides a substantial profile for casting in various freshwater environments. The silver finish remains bright across the teardrop shape, complemented by a treble hook that features a distinctive red sleeve over the shank to serve as a visual attractor. Manufactured by Johnson in the USA, this specimen is cataloged under Product Code 17412. The metal body shows light signs of previous handling, resulting in a condition rating of 4/5. A sturdy split ring connects the hook to the spoon, keeping the hardware assembly original and secure.
