Museum Archive: Vintage Mister Twister Sportfisher, 3/16oz fishing spoon #22250

Stamped into the polished silver back, the "JAPAN" marking reflects the high-quality production standards used for this 3/16oz (5g) spoon. A vibrant neon yellow paint covers the face of the Mister Twister Sportfisher (Product Code 22250), accented by five distinct orange diamond stamps arranged in a classic pattern. At 1 1/2" (3.5cm) in length, the lure’s teardrop profile is well-suited for light-tackle casting or slow trolling. The specimen is in 5/5 condition, showing a clean reflective surface on the reverse and well-preserved hardware, including original silver-toned split rings and a treble hook. The manufacturer’s script logo is deeply embossed on the metal, ensuring the branding remains crisp. Its bright finish and compact weight make it a characteristic example of vintage Japanese-manufactured exports.
