Museum Archive: Vintage K-B Bait K-B Spoon 2, 1/2oz fishing spoon #23205

Stamped clearly into the high-polish metal on the reverse side is the "K-B SUPERIOR WIS. PATENTED" mark, anchoring this piece to its manufacturing roots in Superior, Wisconsin. This K-B Spoon 2, identified by product code 23205, features a classic teardrop silhouette with a brilliant mirror-like finish that catches light across every curve. Weighing 1/2oz (14 g) and measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm), the lure is a quintessential American casting spoon designed for versatile freshwater use. The hardware is in 5/5 condition, consisting of a robust barrel swivel at the line tie and a sharp treble hook, both secured by strong split rings. On the underside, the numeral "2" is deeply embossed, indicating its specific size within the original K-B Bait lineup. The reflective surface remains exceptionally clean, showcasing the craftsmanship of vintage USA production while maintaining all original functional components.
