Vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl), 1/2oz Nickel/gold fishing spoon #24364

Stamped clearly into the back side of this 1/2 oz (14 g) spoon is the silhouette of an exotic dancer, the hallmark of an original Seneca-era production. This specific specimen, listed under Product Code 24364, features the iconic Nickel/gold two-tone finish and the classic hammered texture on the face. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm), the teardrop-shaped body is paired with a sturdy treble hook attached via a standard split ring. The historical engraving of the 'Hula Girl' was inspired by Seneca founder Charlie Clark’s fascination with a performer's movement, a design element that was eventually phased out after Acme acquired the company in the 1980s. Its heavy metal construction is purpose-built for casting into deeper water columns where the dual-tone finish provides high-contrast light reflection. The surfaces show a well-preserved finish with some minor age visible, earning this piece a condition rating of 4/5. Authentic 'Wig-L-Lure' text remains legible near the line-tie hole, confirming its New York manufacturing roots.
