Museum Archive: Vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl) UV, 3/4oz nickel/green UV fishing spoon #19386

A vibrant lime green UV stripe runs down the side of this nickel-finished spoon, offering a modern visual twist to a classic profile. Stamped clearly on the reverse is the legendary 'Hula Girl' dancer, a detail that defines the original Seneca Lure company era before production changed under Acme. Weighing in at 3/4 oz (21 g) and measuring 2 1/2" (6.5 cm), this specimen represents the American-made heritage of the Little Cleo (Hula Girl) UV series. The back also features a distinctive yellow and black eye decal near the bottom hole, adding a secondary focal point to the polished metal surface. Identified by product code 19386, the lure is in 5/5 condition, maintaining a clean finish and crisp stamped lettering. Anglers of the Seneca era often credited the success of this design to the presence of the dancer figure. The hardware includes a robust split ring attached to a silver-tone treble hook.
