Museum Archive: Vintage Lindy / Little Joe Lindy Finsel, 1/3oz Gold / Green fishing spoon #4798

Gold plating covers the body of this 1/3 oz (10 g) spoon, highlighting the classic design of a Lindy / Little Joe lure. Across the face of the 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) blade, a green diagonal stripe with a honeycomb pattern adds a distinct visual element to the gold finish. This Lindy Finsel, found under product code 4798, is detailed with a yellow and black painted eye near the line tie. Crafted in the USA, the lure shows some light surface marks from its time in the tackle box, maintaining a solid 4/5 condition rating. The back of the spoon features the stamped model name, a standard mark of quality for this era of American manufacturing. A treble hook is attached to the tail, dressed with green tinsel accents and yellow tubing. Sturdy split rings at both ends make it ready for various casting and trolling techniques.
