Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Rattlesnake, 2/5oz nickel/red fishing spoon #22352

Half-and-half prism tape in silver and red covers the face of this 2 1/4" (5.5cm) spoon, creating a faceted reflective surface designed to catch light from various angles. This Luhr Jensen Rattlesnake, carrying product code 22352, features a distinctive hardware setup at the rear where the tail is equipped with three separate split rings. While the center ring holds a stout treble hook, the two flanking rings carry small, teardrop-shaped metal blades that add extra visual appeal. The backside of the 2/5oz (12g) body is finished in high-polish nickel, providing a clean metallic contrast to the textured holographic front. Luhr Jensen's American manufacturing standards are clear in the stamped spoon design and the quality of the component assembly. This specimen is in 5/5 condition, retaining the full brilliance of its factory finish on both the metal and the prismatic decals.
