Museum Archive: Vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl), 2/3oz Yellow / Nickel fishing spoon #8686

Yellow enamel with black spots and polished nickel stripes characterizes the face of this vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl). This specific model, designated by product code 8686, weighs 2/3oz (18g) and measures 2 1/4" (5.5cm) in length. Flip the lure over to find the legendary hula dancer stamped into the nickel plating alongside the "WIGL" mark, a signature feature from the era before Seneca was acquired by Acme in the early 1980s. The finish on the front shows minimal wear, earning a solid 4/5 condition rating, while the rear retains its bright reflective quality. Originally manufactured in the USA, the spoon is equipped with its original split ring and a durable treble hook designed for casting and trolling. The presence of the dancer engraving is a significant detail for collectors, as it was eventually phased out of later production runs.
