Vintage Kmart Spoon, 1/4oz fishing spoon #23368

Red and white diagonal stripes create the recognizable high-contrast pattern on this vintage Kmart Spoon, a design traditionally used to break up the lure's silhouette in varying water clarities. At a versatile 1/4 oz (8 g), the 2" (5 cm) metal blank reflects a period when Kmart offered durable, USA-made tackle for the everyday angler. Rated 4/5, the specimen shows gentle signs of its age through light surface scuffs on the painted side, while the pigments remain bold and distinct. A sturdy treble hook is attached to the rear via a reliable split ring, paired with a polished silver-tone reverse side that provides a bright metallic flash. This specific piece, identified by product code 23368, represents the classic teardrop spoon geometry favored for its straightforward casting and trolling applications.
