Dressed in a vibrant nickel, yellow, and red UV finish, this 1/2 oz (14 g) spoon represents a classic piece of angling history. The reverse side of the 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) body features the legendary Hula Girl dancer stamp, a hallmark of the original Seneca Lure company designs before Acme's acquisition in the early 1980s. Finding one in this 5/5 condition is a treat for any collector, as the stamped 'Little Cleo' and 'Wigl Lure' text remains crisp and the nickel plating retains its bright appearance. Cataloged under product code 18805, the unique contrast between the bright yellow paint and the bold red dots on the convex side provides high visibility when casting or trolling.
