Museum Archive: Vintage TODDCO Main Liner, 2/5oz nickel/orange fishing spoon #21933

A vibrant orange paint covers exactly one half of this nickel-plated spoon, creating a high-contrast pattern designed for visibility. This Main Liner, produced by the American company TODDCO until approximately 1980, represents a classic era of mid-century metal lure design. Cataloged under product code 21933, the specimen features a distinct longitudinal ridge that provides structural rigidity to the blade. At a weight of 2/5oz (11g) and a length of 2 1/4" (5.5cm), it is a versatile choice for casting in freshwater environments. The back of the spoon remains a clean, polished nickel, while the hardware consists of a single treble hook attached by a split ring. This specimen shows minor signs of its journey through time, holding a 4/5 condition rating that remains attractive to the eye.
