Museum Archive: Vintage Seneca Little Cleo, 3/16oz Bright Pink / Nickel fishing spoon #2918

Tipping the scales at 3/16oz (5g), this compact spoon displays a vibrant Bright Pink / Nickel finish punctuated by bold black spots and silver metallic accents. Measuring 1 1/4" (3cm) in length, the lure features the unmistakable stamped "LITTLE CLEO" lettering on its polished nickel backside, a hallmark of its production. This particular specimen represents the craftsmanship of Seneca, the original manufacturer of the design before the brand was acquired by Acme. The metal body is equipped with a sturdy treble hook attached via a stainless split ring. Maintaining a condition rating of 5/5, the paint remains remarkably vivid and the stamped lettering on the reverse side is crisp and legible. This specific model carries the product code 2918 and demonstrates the classic construction associated with early American tackle manufacturing.
