Museum Archive: Vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl), 2/3oz Frog fishing spoon #22574

Adorned with a classic Frog pattern, the dark green body of this 2 1/4" (5.5cm) lure is accented by yellow spots encircled by black rings. Weighing 2/3oz (18g), this Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl) represents a sought-after piece of angling history. Turning the metal over reveals the iconic dancer stamp on the polished chrome back, a hallmark of the Seneca Lure company's production before the brand was acquired by Acme in the early 1980s. Many veterans of the sport value these early versions for that specific Hula Girl motif, which was eventually phased out of later designs. This specimen, assigned product code 22574, retains its original treble hook and split ring hardware. Made in the USA, the metal shows a high level of preservation with a condition rating of 5/5. The stamped "LITTLE CLEO" text remains sharp and clear against the silver-toned reverse side.
