Museum Archive: Vintage Acme K.O. Wobbler, 1/4oz fishing spoon #9764

Stamped deeply into the chrome-finished underside, the "K.O. WOBBLER" name identifies this 1 1/2" (3.5 cm) spoon as a staple of Acme's American-made lineup. Its convex side displays a sharp division between a polished silver base and a deep metallic blue stripe, a color combination designed for high-contrast visibility. Weighing in at 1/4oz (7g), the lure's thick-cut metal body provides the density needed for long-distance casting and deep-water retrieves. A key feature of product code 9764 is the addition of a small metal flipper tail attached to the rear split ring alongside the treble hook, which provides secondary flash and creates mechanical sound vibrations during use. The condition of this specimen is rated a 5/5, exhibiting a very clean finish on both the painted and stamped surfaces. Every component, from the top split ring to the factory-original treble, reflects the high-quality standards Acme maintained in their USA production facilities.
