Museum Archive: Vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl), 1/3oz fishing spoon #21148

Weighing 1/3oz (10g), this classic spoon sports a vibrant orange and polished silver finish that splits the front face vertically. This 1 3/4" (4.5cm) lure carries the iconic 'Hula Girl' dancer stamped on the reverse, a detail that defines the original Seneca Lure company era before the brand's acquisition by Acme in the early 1980s. Anglers often swear by the luck associated with the dancer's silhouette, which is accompanied here by the 'WGL LURE' and 'Little Cleo' engravings on the concave silver side. The hardware is straightforward, featuring a single large treble hook secured by a heavy-duty split ring, designed for long-distance casting or trolling. Identified by product code 21148, this specimen is in excellent condition, rated at 5/5, with the stamped details remaining crisp and the orange paint showing great vibrancy.
