Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Little Jewel, 1/4oz Yellow / Red fishing spoon #7519

Measuring exactly 1 1/2" (4 cm) in length, the stamped metal body of this vintage lure displays a classic yellow base accented with teardrop-shaped red and white fluorescent patterns. The Little Jewel, bearing product code 7519, is a legacy model from Luhr Jensen's USA production era that has been retired from their catalog for many years. This specific 1/4 oz (7 g) specimen features a specialized UV Glow finish, which becomes highly visible in low-light environments as shown in the secondary imaging. The hardware includes a original-style treble hook secured by stainless split rings, maintaining the lure's historical integrity. Its condition is rated a 4/5, showing the vibrant paint and distinct markings that collectors associate with mid-century Luhr Jensen tackle. The fluorescent properties were specifically engineered for visibility in deep or murky water where natural light is limited.
