Museum Archive: Vintage Len Thompson #2, 1oz Black / White / Brass fishing spoon #2518

Stamped clearly on the brass-finished underside, the "LEN THOMPSON NO 2" mark identifies the heritage of this 1oz (28g) Canadian classic. Measuring 3 1/4" (8 cm), the spoon features a high-contrast black and white paint scheme on the convex face, paired with a polished brass back. This specific specimen, cataloged under product code 2518, arrives in 5/5 condition, showing clean surfaces and sharp edges on the metal body. These lures have been in production since 1929 and are appreciated for a balanced construction that allows for a slow wobbling movement during a steady retrieve. The hardware is robust, featuring a silver-finished treble hook and a strong split ring at the tail. Whether intended for a collection or a day on the water targeting pike or salmon, the craftsmanship of this piece is evident in the smooth finish and precise stamping.
