Museum Archive: Vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl) Crystal, 1/3oz Crystal (Golden Scale) fishing spoon #5147

Glistening with the sought-after Crystal (Golden Scale) texture, the hammered surface of this 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) spoon mimics the look of broken glass under the water. Stamped onto the concave back is the iconic "Hula Girl" dancer, a hallmark of the original Seneca Lure company production before they were acquired by Acme in the early 1980s. Many collectors prioritize these early models specifically for that dancer engraving, as modern versions have long since omitted her. Weighing in at 1/3 oz (10 g), the brass body maintains its brilliant gold luster and original hardware, categorized under product code 5147. This specimen remains in an excellent state, rated 5/5, showing a bright, reflective finish and a clean, sharp treble hook. The "Little Cleo" and "Seneca Lure" stamps remain crisp and legible against the polished metal.
