Gold plating provides a timeless finish to this 1/4 oz (7g) spoon, a weight class that has proven effective for decades in both fresh and salt water environments. Measuring 1 1/2" (4cm), this Seneca Little Cleo carries the product code 2882 and represents a pivotal era in tackle history before the brand's acquisition by Acme in the early 1980s. This specimen is particularly notable for featuring the stamped image of a hula girl on the concave side, a detail that many veteran anglers believe contributed to the lure's legendary status before the design was eventually simplified. The lure is presented in unused condition, earning a rating of 6, and remains sealed within its original vintage blister pack. The card back highlights the Seneca division's location in Providence, RI, and provides specific fishing instructions for casting or trolling to target species like trout, salmon, and pickerel. The hardware includes a factory-set treble hook, showing no signs of age or wear.
