Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen McMahon 3, 3/32oz brass/nickel fishing spoon #20556

Half-and-half plating of brass and nickel defines the visual profile of this Luhr Jensen McMahon 3. Weighing in at a delicate 3/32oz (3g), this specimen features the classic elongated teardrop shape synonymous with the McMahon series. The metallic contrast between the warm brass and cool nickel on the 1 3/4" (4.2cm) body is designed for high visibility in various water conditions. Identification is easy thanks to the 'McMAHON' stamp clearly visible on the nickel-finished side. Looking at the hardware, you'll find a sturdy barrel swivel attached to the front split ring and a large single hook at the tail, making it a specialized choice for light-tackle casting or trolling. This specific example, cataloged under Product Code 20556, displays an excellent 5/5 condition with the reflective surfaces retaining their original luster.
