Museum Archive: Nebco FlashBait 266, 1/3oz Hammered Gold / Pink fishing spoon #10798

Hammered gold texturing forms the center of this vintage spoon, bordered by sections of bright pink paint. Sized at 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) and weighing in at 1/3 oz (10 g), the Nebco FlashBait 266 is a classic American-made lure. Under ultraviolet light, the pink stripes exhibit a distinct glow, a technical detail designed to increase visibility in deep or murky water. This specific specimen, identified by product code 10798, is unused and remains attached to its original black cardstock backing. The hardware consists of a treble hook secured by a long wire clip at the tail.
