Stamped clearly into the concave surface of the metal, the Marathon name serves as a hallmark of Wisconsin craftsmanship from a company that produced tackle for half a century. This 1 1/4" (3 cm) spoon features a polished gold finish that remains bright across its teardrop-shaped body. Weighing in at 1/8 oz (4 g), the lure is rigged with a silver-tone treble hook secured by a sturdy split ring at the base. Product code 3640 identifies this specific American-made specimen, which reflects the manufacturing history of the Marathon Bait Company between 1929 and 1979. The metal surface is in excellent 5/5 condition, maintaining a clean and reflective appearance on both the face and the back. A single precision-drilled hole at the tapered nose provides the attachment point for a line or swivel.
