Museum Archive: Vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl) Glow, 3/4oz Green / White / Nickel fishing spoon #8684

Weighing in at 3/4 oz (21g), this Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl) Glow is a classic example of American lure craftsmanship from before the brand was acquired by Acme in the early 1980s. The most notable feature on this 2 1/2" (6.5cm) spoon is the original hula dancer stamped on the nickel-finished back, an element many vintage enthusiasts believe is key to the lure's historical success. Finished in a split green and white color scheme, the specimen identified by product code 8684 incorporates a glow-in-the-dark coating for increased visibility in dark water. This genuine USA-made piece is in 5/5 condition, maintaining the sharp lines of the metal body and the clarity of the dancer's image. Unlike modern versions, this Seneca-era production retains the specialized tooling that collectors prioritize.
