Vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl), 2/3oz nickel/gold/copper fishing spoon #22673

Polished nickel plating reveals hints of copper and gold tones on the back side of this 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) spoon. This specimen, carrying product code 22673, represents the classic Seneca Lure production era before the brand was acquired by Acme in the early 1980s. Stamped with the iconic "Hula Girl" dancer and the "WIGL LURE" mark, this 2/3 oz (18 g) lure retains the character that veteran anglers believe was the secret to its legendary success. The dancer image is a prized feature for collectors, as later versions moved away from this detailed engraving. With a condition rating of 3/5, the metal surface shows a soft maturity from its history in the tackle box, yet the hardware remains sturdy. The split ring connects to a vintage treble hook, still showing its original bronze-like finish.
