Museum Archive: Vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl), 3/4oz yellow/green/nickel fishing spoon #21290

Yellow-to-green gradient paint coats the convex front of this 3/4oz (21g) spoon, transitioning smoothly between the two bright colors. Stamped deeply into the nickel-plated backside is the iconic "Hula Girl" dancer silhouette, a detail exclusive to the early production years by the Seneca Lure Company. Anglers often look specifically for this dancer stamp, believing the original Seneca-weighted proportions offered a distinct balance compared to later versions. Measuring 2 1/2" (6.5cm), the metal body carries the original "SENECA," "WIGL," and "USA" hallmarks alongside the weight designation. Identified by product code 21290, the hardware consists of a robust silver-tone treble hook and a sturdy split ring at the rear. This specimen is unused and remains in exceptional condition.
