Museum Archive: Vintage Other Little Doctor 255, 1/4oz Gold / Silver fishing spoon #5596

Gold plating on one side paired with a silver finish on the reverse defines the high-contrast aesthetic of this Little Doctor 255 spoon. Produced in the USA, the metal body features a deep "DOCTOR 255" stamp alongside the "10,000 LAKES ST PAUL" mark from its manufacturer. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.7cm) in length and weighing 1/4oz (7g), this specific item is cataloged under product code 5596. The hardware includes a sturdy treble hook secured by a split ring, reflecting the durable construction standards of classic tackle. In its 5/5 condition, the reflective surfaces are bright and the stamped details are perfectly preserved. A line-tie ring is fixed at the narrow end for casting or trolling applications.
