Vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl), 1/2oz nickel/bronze fishing spoon #22211

A substantial 1/2 oz (14 g) weight gives this casting spoon its distinctive feel in the hand, designed for reaching deeper water columns during a retrieve. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length, this specimen from Seneca Lure Co. features the iconic 'Hula Girl' dancer stamp alongside the 'Wigl Lure' and 'Little Cleo' branding on its reverse side. This specific engraving was a staple of the original USA production before Acme took over the line in the 1980s and eventually removed the dancer image from the mold. The nickel/bronze finish on this item, identified by product code 22211, shows visible wear where the nickel plating has thinned to expose the base metal, resulting in a 3/5 condition rating. It remains equipped with a sharp treble hook and a strong split ring at the tail, maintaining the hardware configuration favored by collectors of original Seneca tackle.
