Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Luhr’s wobbler, 2/5oz Copper fishing spoon #17961

Hammered texture on the convex side provides a classic light-catching surface on this 1 1/2" (3.7cm) spoon. Stamped clearly on the smooth concave reverse is the Luhr Jensen name, reflecting their historical production in the USA. Weighing in at 2/5oz (11g), this Luhr’s wobbler, identified by product code 17961, was manufactured during a brief period when the company offered their own version of the Acme Wob-L-Rite. The rich Copper finish is uniform across the entire specimen, highlighting the quality of the metalwork. As an unused item, it retains its original luster and sharp hardware. The bronze-finished treble hook is attached via a sturdy split ring, designed for the rigors of casting or trolling for various freshwater species.
