Museum Archive: Vintage Weber Kobbler, 1/4oz Red / White / Nickel fishing spoon #1052

Nickel plating and a classic red-and-white accent give this 1 3/4" (4.5cm) spoon its distinctive mid-century look. Stamped clearly with its 1/4oz (7g) weight, the Kobbler by Weber (product code 1052) features a unique S-curved body design that helps it catch light from multiple angles during a retrieve. This American-made lure is finished in polished nickel with a bold red stripe across the upper shoulder, set against a white painted section. The “KOBBLER” name and weight are embossed right into the metal surface near the top eyelet. On the business end, a classic treble hook is attached via a strong split ring. In terms of condition, this specimen earns a 4/5 rating, exhibiting light surface marks that speak to its age while keeping the reflective quality of the nickel and the vibrancy of the paint intact.
