Museum Archive: Vintage Seneca Little Cleo, 1/4oz Nickel / Silver fishing spoon #8302

Stamped clearly into the Nickel/Silver finish, the text "LITTLE CLEO WIGL-LURE A SENECA LURE" identifies this specimen as an authentic pre-1980s piece produced in the USA. Weighing in at 1/4 oz (7 g) with a length of 1 1/2" (4 cm), the spoon features the classic wide teardrop profile synonymous with the Seneca brand before its acquisition by Acme. A single silver-toned treble hook is attached via a split ring, complementing the bright, reflective body. Its condition is rated at 5/5, with the metal surface retaining a high level of clarity and minimal signs of age. Professional collectors often seek out these specific Seneca-stamped lures due to their historical significance in American tackle manufacturing. The product code 8302 identifies this specific size, designed for versatile casting and trolling across various water conditions.
