Museum Archive: Vintage Sensation Little Demon, 1/4oz White / Red / Nickel fishing spoon #0939

Stamped clearly into the nickel-finished reverse side is the "LITTLE DEMON" name, a signature identifier for this classic Sensation spoon. Measuring 1 1/2" (3.5 cm) and weighing 1/4 oz (8 g), this compact metal lure features a high-contrast white and red wavy pattern across its front face. The paint is applied over a solid metal body, which is outfitted with a single treble hook attached via a robust split ring. Another split ring at the nose ensures a secure connection for casting or trolling. Carrying the product code 0939, this USA-made specimen is rated at 4/5, exhibiting a clean finish on both the painted side and the polished metal back. This specific color scheme was a staple for visibility, paired with the simple, durable hardware typical of mid-century Sensation tackle.
