Vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl), 3/4oz nickel fishing spoon #24197

Stamped clearly into the nickel finish, the iconic Hula Girl dancer marks this 3/4 oz (21 g) spoon as a genuine Seneca Lure production from the pre-Acme era. Measuring 2 1/2" (6.5 cm), this specimen represents the classic design that earned a legendary reputation among North American anglers before the early 1980s acquisition. The high-polish nickel surface remains bright and reflective, a key feature for the casting and trolling techniques these heavier spoons were built for. On the reverse side, the detailed engravings include the Little Cleo branding and weight specification, alongside the vintage dancer motif that many veteran anglers swear by. This particular piece carries a condition rating of 5/5, appearing remarkably clean and well-preserved. The sturdy hardware consists of a heavy-duty split ring connecting a sharp treble hook, typical of the robust USA manufacturing standards of the time. Every line and curve of product code 24197 speaks to the craftsmanship that made Seneca a household name in tackle boxes for decades.
