Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Little Jewel, 3/4oz Brass fishing spoon #0918

Tipping the scales at 3/4 oz (21 g), this solid brass casting spoon represents a classic era of American lure manufacturing from the Luhr Jensen factory. Known as the Little Jewel, product code 0918, this 2 1/2" (6.5 cm) specimen is a discontinued vintage model that collectors often hunt for due to its simple, effective design and USA-made pedigree. The heavy-gauge brass body provides substantial density for long-distance casting or reaching deeper strike zones. It features a polished brass finish that remains bright and highly reflective, paired with a sturdy treble hook attached via a strong split ring. The condition is a 5/5, showing a very well-preserved surface that highlights the quality of the original materials. A single, clean attachment point at the head allows for a direct tie or the addition of a swivel for various rigging preferences.
