Museum Archive: Len Thompson #00, 1/2oz Red / White fishing spoon #12062

The patriotic red and white flag pattern immediately identifies this 2" (5 cm) spoon as a staple of the Len Thompson lineup. Tipping the scales at 1/2 oz (14 g), this #00 model is engineered for a slow wobbling motion, a characteristic technical trait that has defined the brand since its 1929 inception in Lacombe, Alberta. This specimen belongs to the Original Series and bears the Product Code 12062. The construction features a robust treble hook attached via a sturdy split ring, reflecting the Thompson-Pallister Bait Co. Ltd.'s commitment to durability. It is presented in its original packaging, and because it is unused, the lure remains in immaculate condition, rated 5/5. Collectors will appreciate the clear "Len Thompson" script on the card, which references the legendary performance that has made these Canadian-made spoons a favorite for targeting pike, lake trout, and salmon across North American waters. Casting or trolling with such a precisely balanced piece allows for technical control during the retrieve.
