Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Kamlooper Junior, 1/4oz Nickel fishing spoon #7505

Stamped clearly into the 1 1/2" (3.5 cm) nickel-plated body is the "KAMLOOPER" name, identifying this Acme classic as the Junior model under product code 7505. Originating from the USA, the solid metal construction of this 1/4 oz (7 g) spoon is defined by a distinctive wavy indentation on the face that increases surface area for light reflection. The hardware setup is straightforward, featuring a single treble hook attached by a split ring. Maintaining a condition rating of 5/5, the finish shows the high-quality plating Acme used to ensure their spoons stood up to years of service. The line tie hole is cleanly punched at the tapered end, characteristic of the precision tooling found in early American lure manufacturing.
