Museum Archive: Vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl), 2/3oz Red / White Pearl / Nickel fishing spoon #13141

A weight of 2/3oz (18g) provides this nickel-based spoon with the substantial heft required for long-distance casting. The front surface features a vibrant Red and White Pearl paint application that blends into the polished nickel over its 2 1/4" (5.5cm) length. On the reverse side, the legendary "Hula Girl" dancer stamp is preserved in sharp detail, a hallmark of original Seneca Lure production prior to the brand's acquisition by Acme in the early 1980s. This specimen, identified by Product Code 13141, also carries the traditional "LITTLE CLEO" and "WIGL LURE" stamps deeply embossed into the metal. The hardware is comprised of a sturdy treble hook attached via a heavy-duty split ring. All surfaces and engravings remain in excellent shape, resulting in a 5/5 condition rating for this vintage American-made piece.
