Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Little Jewel UV, 1/3oz Yellow / Red fishing spoon #8151

Tipping the scales at 1/3oz (9g), this Luhr Jensen spoon features a vibrant yellow base coat punctuated by bold red teardrop accents. Under UV light, the fluorescent finish reacts with a brilliant green glow, making it a specialized choice for low-visibility environments. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.7cm), this Little Jewel UV, cataloged as product code 8151, represents a classic era of American lure manufacturing. Its physical condition is remarkable at 5/5, maintaining the crispness of the paint and the original hardware. A single, sharp treble hook is secured via a split ring at the tail, while the head features a matching split ring for line attachment. This specific vintage model has been out of production for many years, making it a notable find for those who value the Luhr Jensen legacy of craftsmanship.
